Jacob B 'What is folk?' and cultural differences (24) RE: 'What is folk?' and cultural differences 04 Dec 02


"Folk Music" is definitely used as a marketing term in the USA. People who are aware that the term used to mean something else occasionally try to come up with other terms that mean the same thing as the marketing term (such as "accoustic singer-songwriter"), but the term persists.
