"just about anything went as far as the "source" singers were concerned;"
I believe Steve Roud was referring to what songs were sung and not how they were sung.
As he said in the Guardian interview “If Harry Cox had sung Yellow Submarine then it would have to go in,” (the index)
Roud doesn't define folk songs, if it's been collected and is in an archive, it's recorded in the index.
