Thread Name: traditional music in advertisements
Subject: RE: traditional music in advertisements
my objection is two fold.
the using of trad music to sell inappropriate consumer goods,[what will we have next,Sam Larner/Harry Cox providing the music for Birdseye fish fingers].
On a purely emotional level,I feel the music is cheapened.,the song/ tune[by its association] becomes spoiled for me.
on the other hand,if it gets anyone genuinely interested in the music that must be good.Dick Miles
