northfolk/al cholger | 'Real Folk' vs 'Stroke Folk' (49) | RE: 'Real Folk' vs 'Stroke Folk' | 14 Apr 99 |
This isn't going to be definitive, but after reading a years worth of debate about what is and ain't folk...I submit that Prine is...by this definition...He is involved in the "folk process", that being the handing down of song, to keep the process intact. The subtle difference with Prine is that he writes the songs that are handed down, as opposed to hundreds of others, who are merely a link in the "folk" chain. |
