I shoulda put somewhere that I never imagined for a moment that I could get 'country' OR 'folk' back...*sad smile*...it's just too easy to find a convenient 'label' and cram ones own particular variations on the theme into it. It happens in a lot of areas besides music..(like 'crafts' and 'ethnic cuisine') But our friend Max has provided a way I can note my disapproval to anyone in the world who happens to look in! And I think that in the years to come, this medium is going to be enormously influential in defining public perceptions...so I want my narrow little viewpoint out here! Maybe it will actually cause someone to think twice about the issue..

A note about Sheye's car tapes...I do similar things, though not 'quite' to that extreme..*grin*...but you can't go to the record store and buy such combinations...they will ALWAYS have to have some sort of 'official nomenclature' to label the bins with. I simply offer my **humble** opinion as to what those labels should read and what should be in them.
