GUEST,The Mole Catcher's unplugged Apprentice Chords in Folk? (625* d) RE: Chords in Folk? 08 May 08

"the stagnation of any tradition will kill it."

Got that right, problem is old weird WAV doesn't get it, and ya know, you can put up your
"Folk song is usually melodic, not harmonic" (The Hutchinson Encyclopedia); Folk "musical structure is the simple repitition of a tune (with or without chorus)" (Philip's Essential Encyclopedia)."
as many times as you want, no one is going to believe it. Mind you isn't that what propagandists do, repeat the same phrases over and over until the populous believes it? The imperialists of the British Empire did it, the Nazis did it and the communist regimes did it, and the idea carries on today with the Americans in Iraq...quite the lineage eh?
