Thread Name: What makes a new song a folk song?
Subject: RE: What makes a new song a folk song?
Exactly. It's an INDUSTRY.
Out in the open time at last.
The bloated capitalists of the music industry [thanks again Ian} can see a way to make some bread out of perversion of our traditions
and here comes that sainted bloody Mather to cheer them on their way, with his [yet again] 'comic air of having triumphantly demonstrated what has merely been strenuously asserted'.
Wonder if he realises what a corner he has painted his stupid old lefty·ɷhole self into, with his bloody music industry...
