Subject: RE: BS: Is the new age of folk upon us?
It seems Ian you have not re-read the 1954 definition recently. Whatever you write and sing does not become a folk song until it is absorbed by a community, and modified by that transmission (I paraphrase).

Perhaps you would care to resurrect "White Middle Class Blues".
