the English folk revival,has many people to thank for its birth and continuance,including EFDSS, the Northunmbrian Pipers Society,EwanMaccoll,MartinCarthy,AlLoyd,Lou Killen,Bob Davenport,all of these people ,have promoted ENGLISH TRADTIONAL MUSIC,[Ewan promoted Scottish music as well]all these people would be shocked if their interest in British[the folkmusic of the islands of Britain] was construed as making them white racists.
Greg Stephens,you are playing into the hands of the BNP.
we need to stop them claiming British folk music as theirs.
starting INTERNATIONAL FOLK CLUBS is an excellent idea.
but trying to tell existing folk club organisers what they should do,is undemocratic and unreasonable.
