Like I say, Michael, the legacy of Louis Killen is one defined by (and defining of) the very inclusivity of The Folk Idiom, however so derived, contived, or else bickered over in the backrooms of the Mudcat Cafe. Those very 'Tradition Idioms' (to use Bellamy's term) have seeded, rooted, fruited in some land the lore calls Folk where the rule is very much that Folk is as Folk does, regardless.

That's a fine legacy right there, one that gives us pause to ponder the notion of Traditional as perceived by outsiders and insiders alike. Empirically, and pragmatically, I'd say Shoals of Herring is just as Traditional in that sense as Blackleg Miners though I wouldn't expect many here to agree with me.
