Thread Name: Why should we sing folk music at all?
Subject: RE: Why should we sing folk music at all?
LH, write what you like. Nowhere have I even hinted you should't. It may be bad, it may be good, I might like it or not. But what's that got to do with the ongoing folk process? The folk process is the transmission, modification, and adoption of work. I am also baffled why you wnat what you do to be called "folk". Call it what you like, but don't mislead. You also don't give a reason or explanation why we should sing your music at all - which was the OP's question.

Peace, the one thing we have modern politicians to thank for is that they have made 60s protest songs apt and relevant again. Yep, Eve of destruction. It may be right, and I'm not the only person reviving it.
