GUEST,Joe G The current state of folk music in UK (2105* d) RE: The current state of folk music in UK 16 Nov 19

'" singer/songwriters do not pass YOUR litmus test."
And very many do'

That has led me to asking a question that I have been considering asking for a while. Which current songwriters do you consider to write folk songs (or at least songs in the folk idiom), Jim? Possibly more importantly who do you not consider to be folk artists?

I think that would help an understanding of what type of songs you consider to be acceptable as folk which I think would help the discussion
