Joseph Taylor of Saxby-All Saints, Lincolnshire - b. 1832 approximately - was considered by Percy Grainger, the Australian pianist, composer and folk song collector, to be the finest folk singer that he had the opportunity to record.
Read the rest of this article on a Joseph Taylor web page but note that these is a factual error on the site.
The linked article is interesting but contains an inaccuracy since it refers to Percy Grainger visiting Lincolnshire in 1905 with Lucy Broadwood. In fact she did not attend the first Folk Song competition there in that year, but actually attended the second one the following year, and carried out a joint collecting trip with Grainger at that time , 1906.
