Subject: RE: What the Hell Is He Singing
I understand your concern, Adrien, but I think the previous post says it well.I also think that there are many young entertainers who are carrying the traditions on, e. g., Crooked Still, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Allison Brown, Uncle Earl, Alison Kraus just to name a few.Also, as the previous post states, I am sure that future entertainers will do their best to tailor their music to the audience and, God willing, some of our friends and relatives will see to it that we can use recorded music (IPods, MP3s,cd players)to get our musical "fix".There are young folk musicians-songwriters who are "carrying it on".
