Subject: RE: Century's Most Influential Performers?
If we are talking "folk" rather than Traditional, I vote for these 10...

Bill Monroe
The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem
Joan Baez
Pete Seeger
Bob Dylan
Martin Carthy
Robert Johnson
Ewan MacColl
The Watersons
Sweeney's Men

If we are talking Traditional rather than "folk," I vote for 10 different names...

All the best,
Dan
