Thread Name: Why Bluegrass musicians don't like folk
Subject: RE: Why Bluegrass musicians don't like folk
She sure doesn't sound like a folk singer to me, either. Just because she gets booked in a folk venue doesn't make her a folk singer. Just because she plays an acousting guitar and sings doesn't make her one either. I don't consider what she plays as being folk music. How about she's just a woman who writes songs and sings them while she accompanys herself on an acoustic guitar. Charo writes songs she writes and sings them with an acoustic guitar. Is she a folksinger?

Number 6, I appreciate that you "get it." Really do.
