" all i can say to him is keep clear of West Cork, "
That is - as far as I'm concerned, a threat of violence.
Perhaps if you desisted from directing virtually all your postings to me and/or stopped making them e#very bit as insulting as you accuse me of doing, this might not happen in the future.
I'm beginning to know how Jill Dando felt
"MacColl did rather well out of the music industry"
MacColl wrote a love song for Peggy - twenty years later it was taken up by the pop industry - nothing wrong with that, nothing wrong with anybody doing the same
It's a million miles from throwing open the doors of folk clubs to a predatory industry and hanger-on organisations like PRS and IMRO and claiming that their general output is 'folk'.
The Music Industry has no interest in nothing that can't bring in big megabucks - its influence on folk music in the past has done nothing but major damage.
Thanks for the Buffalo correction Mike
