GUEST,jim bainbridge folk song art song (136* d) RE: folk song art song 18 Jun 21


Dick, I'm well aware we have different approaches to the same music-nowt wrong with that...

I have no time for Zooom/online folk- it seems a contradiction in terms to me! Martin Carthy is a lovely bloke and a well informed singer- not to my taste which is my opinion.
However, you know very well that his live performances certainly include humour, whereas you say the online one did not? A natural reaction to there being no FOLK involvment, ie singing at a camera!   for me, QED

Such singers as you mention would not last a minute in a public bar, never mind a folk club, so let the market decide that- never thought I'd ever find myself quoting Maggie Thatcher!
