"Jungle music"- those comments are just horrendous. How anyone could be so ignorant of the reality of racism in 2009, even in ITM, is beyond me. The idea that there's a "tradition" that never changes, just gets corrupted by foreign (Sassenach!) influences, is so benighted that I'd rather give up playing music than associate with such. Fortunately, the trad players I've known know a bit about music too.
