The recent mention about Broadside reminded me to post this list. I would
appreciate additions and corrections. I make no claims to completeness.

After posting my list of folk music publications, I went home and
found in my mailbox a flyer from Sally Rogers, covering various topics
(e.g. new record, spring concert tour schedule, dulcimer classes, etc.).
She also listed some folk music publications ("for gift giving"), and so here
are some additions to what I posted:
Fast Folk Musical Magazine
178 West Houston, Suite 9, New York, NY 10014 $40/10 issues
This magazine primarily publishes new songs from the NY folk scene.
The high subscription rate is really a bargain, since each issue includes
a 12-inch stereo album of all the songs.
