Thread Name: Peter Kennedy's Folktrax recordings
Subject: RE: Peter Kennedy's Folktrax recordings
I'm not sure why Dick Greenhaus is taking flak on this thread. I know Dick to be an enthusiast for traditional song who is motivated more than anything else by the desire to make rare stuff (for which there is a market so limited that any profits are tiny) available to those enthusiasts who wish to hear it. This is the same person that pulled off the previously unimaginable feat of reprinting Bronson's Traditional Tunes of the Child Ballads at an affordable price. Will Topic be held to the same high standards regarding Kennedy's 'collection' that are being demanded of Camsco?
