Acclaimed solo singer and member of the Young Tradition, Peter Bellamy carried the banner of traditional singing very high indeed. Himself a traditionalist and perfectionist, he was ultimately dissatisfied with his ability to popularise of the people music. He made about 15 solo albums, and produced others (of which The Transports is the best known). To call his music simply folk doesn't do it justice. It was ballads, shanties, cowboy songs, hymns, blues and hollers and the occasional contemporary piece. But it all came to an abrupt end when, in a particularly dark trough of despair, he committed suicide
