Jim Carroll traditional songs - best for learning? (130* d) RE: traditional songs - best for learning? 31 Dec 18


"You could never find a less patronising man than Steve Gardham."
Steve has patronised me publicly since we first crossed sword Nick, and has continued do do so throughout our fractious relationship.
His first opening comments were that I was "starry- eyed and naive" when I quoted MacColl's moving closing comments on 'The Song Carriers' (go check them out and see what you make of them)
I'm afraid it went against his 'the folk didn't make folk songs' theory
Our relationship went downhill from then on
I know what you mean about "shouting at the screen" though - I do it far too often nowadays
Please try to confine your comments to what you know about I have never kicked anybody to my hearts content, though I used to kick back occasionally
Getting too old for that now
Jim
