Subject: RE: Unaccompanied Singers
Its a tricky one. Some people really do see themselves as curators of the tradition and they read the words of these songs as they sing them. And the point they labour is that they are keeping these songs going. No one else would be singing them - if it wasn't for them. I think this is a valid point of view, and I respect it. They have their clubs - we have ours.

Live and let live, give em a wide berth if you think you'll be bored shitless - as doubtless they are by our sessions.

Anyone got the chords for Last Thing on My Mind....?
