Subject: RE: how important is the label traditional singer?
Bob Roberts,never claimed he wrote the Oily Rigs,as far I know.
Though he was the first person to perform it,and brought it into the repertoire of the folk revival.
Folkie Dave,if youwant to know about Bob Roberts google him up.
I was asking a question,Attempting to ascertain why Roberts never claimed authorship of the Oily Rigs.
