NEWS - reviews online
The texts of all the record reviews written over the last
20+ years by Andrew Cronshaw for fRoots magazine (except for those from
the most recent issues of the magazine - the last three months or so - you'll
have to buy it or subscribe to see those, which is well worth it anyway) are now
online here as part of this
website. Currently that's over 2000 albums, mainly from the Nordic countries, the Baltics, Eastern Europe and
Iberia, but also from other parts of Europe and the world. Clicking the link
takes you to the introduction page, which is a gateway to them all,
categorised by region and country.
