Am in Grimsby in the UK Jim.
I thought of a folk museum because what I read on here leads me to think that traditional music is already written,morphed and changed and processed in a magic folk processor and therefore finished.
There can be no more than already exists.
So it comes over to me as being kept in a museum.
That makes me feel sad and I know there must be more to it than that.
But what do you do to remedy it.
Move the chalk line to include more and more recent music?
Museum of modern folk?
LOL
I dunno I come and read these threads to learn from you guys.
