Al - PM on the way. I would love the album but even more so to see you live. Any gig lists about?

Reading back through the thread I can't help but notice the examples of 'exclusive' folkies date back to the 60's. Your own example of Roy Harper dates back to 1969 , Al. Over 40 years ago. It was in my home town that someone cried 'Judas' at Bob Dylan. Can anyone come up with any recent evidenced examples of any folk club saying 'you cannot play/sing that here. It's not traditional.'?

If so I will accept that SOME folk club organisers do indeed need updating. But only some. And I will never accept that because of the few the whole of 'English Folk Music' needs to be replaced, as the OP suggests, with something else.

Cheers
