Thread Name: The current state of folk music in UK
Subject: RE: The current state of folk music in UK
Nick my point is really can Jack Rutter's agent describe him thus ~
@JackRutterer
Folk Singer, Guitarist, Bouzouki Player, Multi-Instrumentalist. // ’Among Britain's finest traditional singers
I then queried the description "traditional" singer and whether there are any traditional source singers left ~ you kindly confirmed that there are indeed "traditional singers" still alive
Jack Rutter then, cannot be described as a "traditional" singer, can he?
My contention is that he could be described as a Revivalist or Traditionalist singer ~ how do you reckon he should be described??
