Bob Zentz, a singer/songwriter, folk-singer, multi-instrumentalist, from Norfolk, Virginia has set several poems to music. He has several albums on Folk-Legacy, CLICK HERE. For the last two years, at Common Ground on the Hill (CLICK HERE) right here in Westminster, my home town, he has taught a course on setting poetry to music. Of course, Bob has set several poems to music. See "Green Castle Jenny" on his "It's About Time" recording as a great example.
So, of course, it is legitimate.
