Subject: RE: fifties popsongs that started as folk
Not entirely certain that Work's works [ouch!] are actually 'folk songs'; tho "The Year of Jubilo", "Marching thru Georgia", &c, as well as "Grandfather's Clock" are indeed very fine songs, without doubt, and well within the "folk form", however defined (see my just-now post on the 'What makes a new song folk?' thread).
