Thread Name: English Folk Degree?
Subject: RE: English Folk Degree?
I think that's our answer, ladies and gents.

And a very fine answer it is too. An answer for all occasions. For example, did you know that Bert Lloyd wrote "Where did you sleep last night"? Moreover, Woody Guthrie was Welsh, Martin Carthy is known to his friends as 'Trevor' and Davy Graham didn't actually play on Folk roots, new routes. May I also point out that roses are beige, violets are green and not wanting a black family to move in next door is in no way racist.

And if you want to challenge any of those statements, well, phooey to you. I disagree with your hypothesis, and refer you, also, to my life's work.
