I'll slag off on whomever I darned well please, you young whippersnapper. This is a free country and if I feel like slagging I'll damned well slag.

I don't think I've ever even heard Nanci Griffith or Emmylou Harris or Iris Dement. What kind of a tom-fool name is Dement? Sounds like an idjit.

You mean John Lennon doesn't sound like Bob Dylan on acid? Except for the fact that Lennon can sing, I'd say that's a pretty good description of his early-to-mid-70s stuff.

I fail to hear anything even remotely rockabilly in "Hold On Tight." As for rockabilly, which of the Beatles do you think did the lead vocal on "Rock and Roll Music?" Ringo? Lennon loved rockabilly.

"Go back to your folk music." You're very funny. If you don't like folk music you picked a strange place to hang out. As it so happens I also enjoy rock, blues, classical, jazz, even country. You don't think I learned what "Hold on Tight" sounds like by listening to Emmylou Harris, do you?

Matt, maybe you need a nap.
