GUEST,Tunesmth Tom Paxton has retired from touring (not yet) (68* d) RE: Tom Paxton has retired from touring (not yet) 25 Sep 17


Oh dear! Elmore, you're missing the bloody point.

How the heck can you compare the odd concert performance of the song ( probably sung to a bunch of people the wrong side of 60 yrs old) with the day by day, year by year, encounters that countless numbers of children, parents and grand-parents have with the Zoo song.

I'm beginning to think that too much exposure to folk music dulls a persons reasoning faculties.

BTW, if the Zoo song was performed at ANY concert ( from the Proms to a heavy metal show ) I bet MOST of the audience could sing along with it...and waves their arms like an elephant's trunk!
