Hammond Organ solos?
Well. did it on our interpretation of a Mike Waterson song.
(Working Chap) PJD's CD Flat Earth. (sadly now out of print).
Mike liked it. So, What problem?
Sorry for my spat at Dick Miles yesterday, but, I do feel that a few people should take their blinkers off as regards to interpretations of all music. If you hadn't noticed. It's 2010. The world moves on (in a traditional way obviously), and the next generation, whilst hopefully embracing the past, will take it their own way.
Listened to the Dave Burland/Nic Jones take of Lankin yesterday, modulating from Major to Minor as the story unfurled. Not traditional in any way that some people here would approve of, but, emminently listenable. (Has even got a cheesy synth part on it, that always makes me smile!).
Relevant? I think so.
As relevant as Peta and Kens London club is, as relevant as the Volenteer and the Radway in Sidmouth are, as relevant as Bellowhead, Faustus, and....(dare I say it) Jim Moray is?
I applaud Jims work in the collecting and archiving field.
Songs and tunes should be collected as they can be.
But, the next generation of singers and musicians will do with them what they think floats their collective boats. And there is bugger all we old fogies can do about it!
For myself, I'm intrigued, and sometimes astonished by the music being created today.
