No Dave.

But you know the old Australian joke. How do you get fifty poms in a phone box? Make one a foreman, and the rest will crawl up his arse.

Its a bit like that. Make one a member of Steeleye, The watersons, Fairport......etc.

I was making a distinction between what what was going on in the folk clubs. and what was happening in this abstraction....' inthe tradition'.
