GUEST,Hootenanny	Origins/versions: Pretty Polly? (37)	RE: Origins/versions: Pretty Polly?	16 Mar 21
The PC world again. Don't sing songs about violence, don't play a fiddle tune that was once used for words that some people think of as racist which probably came from Minstrelsy. Don't play the tune used for a song thought of as the Confederate anthem which actually originates with a black family from way up north. The reason that this material has lasted so long is because people like it. If folks start following these ideas then they are soon going to run out of repertoire or have to get into teeny pop.
