Subject: RE: 1954 and All That - defining folk music
"Folk is as it is, and I don't think a half dozen or so whining traddys is going to change that."
I count something like 500 books on my shelf with my version of 'folk' as the subject - not bad for half a dozen whining traddys, don't you think?
How many do you have adhering to your non-version of the term?
