Thread Name: Should Folk Music be Recorded
Subject: RE: Should Folk Music be Recorded
record everything...just maintain perspective about the source and genré. You may 'record' something today that is truly 'source material', and you may find a recording 50+ years old that is pure commercial songwriting.

It takes years to really sort out the aspects of music that allow sensible catagorization.....but only a few minutes maybe to decide it's worth keeping while you study it.
