I'm sorry, Jim, but you've lost me completely. I asked for a definition of the "recognisable parameters" that you believe should guide what goes on in folk clubs and you gave me a list of songwriters. I don't think I was being dishonest in assuming that these were people you admired especially since you started the list with MacColl.

If I have misunderstood, I apologise. Please explain what you actually meant.

Why oh why do you insist on making liars of so many of us?

WHAAAAT?!
