Thread Name: Does it matter what music is called?
Subject: RE: Does it matter what music is called?
I don't want to be difficult, but I just got back from seeing the Winter Journey live. Excellent stuff, but nowhere near as good as the godlike genius of Dan Heywood who they supported.

It's not folk by any definition, particularly one wrought in 1954 (for fuck's sake!!!) but it's bloody good predominently acoustic live music, that possibly has a place in the world of "folk clubs" (whatever they are) and is prone to causing mass outbreaks of general pleasure.

Which is surely the whole point?

on some levels...

Much as I like traditional music.

at least it's not some FUCKWIT singing "Hotel California"...
