What happened pre-BBC intervention as far as what was sung there - which is what I referred to if you took the trouble to read what was posted, is well documented, as was how the BBC sessions were set up to record exclusively 'Folk Songs' - it was an 'anything-goes session as far as repertoire was concerned.
