So we have become used to watching music rather than making it? What a load of twaddle. Just who filled the pubs where people sang in The Old Days? Not every one in Hardy Country had their own fiddle and a fine singing voice and the skill to make music. The great majority of the population didn't make music then, any more than they do now. I have severe doubts that every pub had its own performing circle, with regular sessions and spontaneous jigs. The Chas and Dave version of history.
