Thread Name: Different types of contemporary folk
Subject: RE: Different types of contemporary folk
Isla C may have sung the song but it was not HERS- an important distinction which you should have made.
Ray Davies' work isn't folk- so its of no value- that's the implication there....oh dear
No MacColl didn't ever sing 'Little Chance' maybe because he couldn't do the accent- if you don't even refer to the right Folkways LP- it featured songs from various source singers of NE Scotland & would have been much more valuable if EM had issued the originals rather than his own inferior versions.

I have not 'participated fully' in the discussion- have just dropped the odd comment and-I have no wish to waste time arguing with anyone as intransigent as yourself- all you want is an argument really, isn't it?
Don't know who the fokolpie boys in blue are, think your fingers are running away with you, and I'd suggest you sit in a corner with a nice cup of tea and keep your crap to yourself, while others get back to the subject
