GUEST,Suibhne Astray (in the Folkless Zone) Review: 'Electric Eden' by Rob Young (22) RE: Review: 'Electric Eden' by Rob Young 07 Jun 11


You can tell that by how fast threads like this (and many others) drop off the list; like a stone through water, which is a shame. Folk is a wondrous thing in terms of its interfacing with Popular Culture as a whole, as books like Electric Eden will testify, likewise seeing Bellowhead or the Unthanks on Jools Holland, or watching old Folk Horror films, or singing 12-minute border ballads to rapt family (mostly) non-folk audiences at the Morpeth Gathering. Mention any of this here on Mudcat and no one cares; Folk on its own tends to insularity and cranky righteousness, hence the legendary Mudcat Wall of Silent Indifference to anything that falls outside of a very little plot of imaginary earth.
