Thread Name: Why should we sing folk music at all?
Subject: RE: Why should we sing folk music at all?
Hell, I heard that Havens is doing/releasing one of mine from 40 years ago, too. That said, some of the songs being written by people like Moore, McKeever, Whittle, Burton, Moorhouse, Coventry (to name a few) will someday be considered folk songs. That's the way I see it.

My remarks about '95% of the songs ever written being tripe' still stands. I include many of my own in that--I just hope I have the 'sense' not to release them. Been there and done that.
