Subject: RE: What makes a new song a folk song?
Bloody hell... Leavis.. haven't heard that name
since I turned my back on academia nearly quarter of a century ago...

Living and drinking with Scots and Irish brickies and hoddies
soon cured me of all that highfalutin miserable pretentiousness...


... the downside is... I have probably lost a few too many braincells through lack of exercise
since I stopped reading big books and agonising and losing sleep over deep dark unanswerable questions...


BTW.. MGM·Lion, I checked out some of your videos again..
you could have been a good punk rocker..

Did you ever review any Pentangle LPs when they were first released.
Can you remember if you had any opinion at that time
on John Renbourn's use of a fuzz box on the "Cruel Sister" LP ?
