Subject: RE: Shortest definition of folk From: McGrath Date: 04 May 98 - 11:05 AM How about this from the Irish Language. Caint, Ceol agus Caric - Translates to: Talk, song and fun. I love CBC too! Great and varied educational programmes down through the years. Us Paddies have a great afinity to Canada and at least some of us remember Grosse Île. Best Regards |
Subject: RE: Shortest definition of folk From: Sheye Date: 04 May 98 - 10:46 AM A profound quote from Canada... and I lived to see the day. (Tongue in cheek) Now if we could only convince the powers that be to let us have a decent anthem. Canada's motto: We have the only anthem that is completely politically correct. We keep repeating the same six words, but they are none the less, politically correct. Seriously, keeping in line with Canada's citizen policy, I will go on record stating that I LOVE the CBC. |

Subject: RE: Shortest definition of folk From: Helen Date: 04 May 98 - 08:00 AM Hi Steve Nice definition, but a (mischievous) question: what was the definition of folk music before commercial media was invented?? :-) Helen |
Subject: Shortest definition of folk From: steve t Date: 04 May 98 - 06:57 AM I heard this one on CBC radio: Folk is music that does not rely entirely on commercial media for its distribution.
