Nope,
Just repeating what we were told by traditional singers like Walter Pardon - all open to access at the British Library if you ever care to come out of your folkie greenhouse and listen - but we've been here before, haven't we?
I have not told anybody what is right or wrong (I know it is a waste of time asking you to point out where I have - we've been here before as well) I have said if it loses an essential part of its identity it becomes something else.
I do find your folkie-bashing somewhat bizarre - a sort of public self flagellation, but whatever turns you on!!
As I said, You seem quite happy to consider only those "opinions" that uncritically favour your own performance - which remains to my ears as folkie as it gets, albeit about thirty years behind the times.
No change there.
Yours as ever
