Just when I thought it was safe to join in the thread turns nasty:

"all the stars have got the kids, spot on nepotism is rife."

Don't understate your case - say what you really think.

The current collection of 'young people' who are popular in our little genre of music are hard working, talented and full of good ideas.

As for the book? I first went to a folk club in 1964 and have been going ever since. I have seen or read about nearly all the people who are quoted and so I am enjoying the narrative. The format suits the narrative. If I didn't know anybody it might not be so fascinating.
