Subject: RE: How much Folk Music is there?
There is still fresh material being collected,an international approach is healthy.Alan Lomax tried this approach successfully 30 to 40 years ago.The likelihood is the more remote an area,the more success you will have in finding it[but keepaway from the Borneo HeadHunters]
Dave,a lotof people on this forum[including yourself]have a nom de plume,I assumed Malcolm Douglas was a nom de plume,I have apologised.
You in your ignorance accused me of talking nonsense[the subject was did Glor na Gael organise music competitions]I pointed out to you that I had Judged at two such competitions ,so they do .
I gave my apology,I am still waiting for yours.
