You are entitled not to like Kate Rusby

Yes, I am but I don't 'not like' her.
I scarcely know her and she'd be hard put to recognise me, I'm sure.
That would be mainly because I'm rarely where she is, for obvious reasons but absolutely not personal.
What I am annoyed (and quite alarmed) about are attempts (for whatever reason) to pass off what is clearly not rooted English music by any stretch of the imagination as just that.
I'm not telling anyone what they should like. That would clearly be pointless. Listen to what you like. What I'm calling for is dispassionate accuracy.

[And the sort of predatory behaviour at music venues that GS seemed proud to have indulged in is perverted to me and I'll be continuing to criticise it].
