Martin Graebe BS: Copyright and folk (48) RE: BS: Copyright and folk 26 Sep 00

Me, I'm quietly amused and pleased to see one of my songs in the Database marked as 'traditional' and then to find the same song on a US issued Pagan CD described as a 'traditional Englsih pagan song. I must be doing something right. In my best year I only ever made £25 in royalties on other peoples recordings of my songs - that's why I still have a day-job.

What is truly obscene is when collectors try to copyright the songs they have recorded from living song carriers.
