Someone once questioned Eliza Carthy's collaboration with Argentinian accordionist Chango Spasiuk with the really silly: "But is it folk?"
This was quite funny in a sad sort of way, to which the only possible reply was "don't know, don't care but it's bloody good music".
I cannot fathom how stupid and insulting it must be to her to have some ignorant Australian taking her to task for playing with fellow citizens of a slightly different ethnic origin, or more importantly (to this whiter than white immigrant), slightly darker skin colour.

I see we're moving on to telling the Irish what they can and cannot play. Good luck.
