Well agents aren't really for people like you Malcolm. They're for people who have been inside a folk club. A bloke with a chain of hotels in Kenya. People who have to direct a TV play about about a scene inside a pub . A string of Irish pubs in Valparaiso, or Exeter. Faraway places with strange sounding names.

Can you imagine such climes - places where the gospel of the 1954 definition of folk music is only whispered in hushed tones.
