Cheers Richard. I feel that my contention is essentially, that *if* amatuer song-circles, are to be blamed for the destruction of trad folk, *who* then, is to blame for *allowing* amatuer song-circles to carry the vast weight and burden (it is pretty big, after all!) of our ENTIRE musical cultural heritage in the first place!? Is this in some way ridiculous? For me, as a complete and indeed besotted newbie, it seems thoroughly so!
