PFR I think it depends on your age group and whether you play accompaniment in relation to which style you prefer, probably also on which version you heard first. I'm open to other suggestions of what influences what we like. I have been humourously berated for singing Abdul Abul bul Amir and We Never Mention Aunt Claram in an "acoustic" sessions while being complemented at a "trad?" session. I try to connect with an audience's nostalgia by playing songs they havnt heard for years. Its a great feeling when at the end of a song your see a big smile and " I havnt heard that for years it was my xxxx favorite song"
