Alex, it's seems that is a matter of opinion & personnel preference, see Method's thread. My opinion is Steve is a singer/songwritter (one of the few with great talent) first & a folkie later, sometimes, maybe, once in awhile, depending on the mood he was in the day he wrote a song, but then that's only my thoughts on it. I also realize that I'm extreme on what I feel is traditional, what's folk, what's just accoustic & what's contempory or commerical folk trash. I think I'll finally throw my 2 cents into that other thread. Barry
