Music.

So. MJ, a good friend and co-owner of one of the major recording studios in town, and I did some music earlier in the year. The folk festival, and we were thinking about recording some songs we put together for that. A week or so ago, she said she wanted me to come in and record an album... something serious, something I can do whatever with, demos or... anything really. It'd be fitting it in between her and her husband's other work, which is fine with me (and fitting it in between mine). The trouble is, I'm not sure what I'd do. I haven't written any music... that's not on the table right now and I don't have time to dive into that just now in a way that will be productive to anything I can actually produce. I sing a lot of folk music though, and that's probably what I'd end up doing. Modest guitar, MJ plays piano and sings also. So, I need to start really looking for an array of songs so that I have some choice for what I'm doing.

So. Does anyone have any ideas for songs that I should look up and learn? More traditional stuff is best... basically, songs in public domain that I can record without worrying about licensing. I can do research learning leg work myself... but if you know where I can get ahold of the lyrics/music/guitar chords/whatever (or have a file you can send me <3) that's awesome too.

Thanks!
