brand leaders,is folk music to be treated like Persil ?.
Peggy Seeger made a point in a recent interview,that her music was not commercially viable,it wasnt meant to be.
it is about time that some of the people leading the English Folk Revival,made it clear that leading the folk revival down a commercial[popular music path]will not benefit the music.
people who talk about brand leaders show a mindset that indicates they like commercialism, and that they like competitions.,it is as silly as the national school league tables.
I repeat vacuous competitions are not the best way of promoting any knid of music on television /radio.
