GUEST,John Hardly | Trad vs. Singer-Songwriters at festivals (149* d) | RE: Trad vs. Singer-Songwriters at festivals | 22 Oct 03 |
Somewhere between Mark Cohen's and Clinton Hammond's remarks are what strikes me as an obvious problem -- Yeah, some "singer/songwriter" once wrote the trad songs -- but he/she also FELT them, experienced them, and the events and situations that inspired them. And as Mr Hammond points out, recitation lacks what is compelling about the best of music currently written. |
