Thread Name: What is The Tradition?
Subject: RE: What is The Tradition?
To put the C-word quote in context it was said to me many years ago by an avid collector of recorded music of all kinds. We were discussing fans with whom he had to spend an unhealthy amount of time in pursuit of his collection.

Rock and Rollers could be a bit risky depending on which side of the Eddie Cochran-Gene Vincent divide they were, soul boys were naughty but passionate and so on but for sheer blind fundamentalist unpleasantness he reserved the C-word for folkies. Perhaps he'd had dealings with people hereabouts?
