Thread Name: Poetry exposure versus Folksong
Subject: RE: Poetry exposure versus Folksong
I `ad that Betsy in my cab, `er face was thunderous and long.
She `ad `er tranny on full blast in search of folk music and song.
But try as may she could find none, even surfing Radio Three.
All she could find was Brahms or Bach, and a load of modern poetry.
She said, " `ere Jim, do you like verse, without no tunes, just funny rhymes?"
I said, "Course I do, they pay quite well if you can get `em in Radio Times!!"


Whaddam I Like???
