Subject: RE: morality of collecting
Steve Quick last word. Yes, I certainly have listened to Nic Jones. Liking or disliking a singer is a matter of personal taste (and debate, in the right circumstances) and I have my opinions of his singing as I have with all singers I have heard. What I was referring to is the fact that at one stage, the revival imploded when it became swamped with Carthy clones and Moore mimics and Bellamy bleaters who adopted the styles and mannerisms of their particular heroes. This, for me, became incredibly incestuous and lost the whole impetus of that had built up. Jim Carroll
