Subject: RE: How can a folkie make a living?
Harry Cox and Fred Jordan made a living working on a farm. Sam Larner and John Doughty made a living working on trawlers. Belle Stewart and Phoebe Smith made a living selling things from door to door. John McDonald made a living as a molecatcher.
None of them made a particularly good living. But look at the music!
