Sometimes we make music for the sheer joy of community and song--that is the spirit of the Golden Ring. More of a concept than a group, the Golden Ring introduced so many folks to the sound of traditional music and the joy of making it with friends, This episode focuses on three records: A Gathering Of Friends For Making Music (1964) and Five Days Singing Volumes one & two (1971). All three released on Folk Legacy Records. This episode is dedicated to Ed Trickett. Ed was a founding member of the group and sadly passed away a few months after I interviewed him for the podcast. My other special guest is the wonderful Sally Rogers.
