Hello Jerry,
Yes, there is a difference between perceptions of folk music, depending upon where you are.
I have always felt that US folkies have more of a grasp on the genre than others. Utah Phillips talked a great deal of sense about folk music, its usage and its origins. You can still find his views on the web.....(but you knew that!)
