"My point was, Jim, that you seem to say that you left the UK folk club scene (In the eighties?) when you could no longer hear folk music in a "Folk Club""
I didn't Bryan, I said I said I stopped randomly visiting clubs when my choice of what would find there was removed from me."
My experience is different, I WAS PLAYING IN A LOT OF FOLK CLUBS IN THE EIGHITES AND I heard a lot of well performed trad and contemporary material. I also ran a folk club in the eighties and booked Carthy and Swarbrick,Martin Carthy, MacColl and Seeger, Cyril Tawney,Tony Rose Peter Bellamy, Irish musicians such as John and Julia Clifford, Nic Jones, Johnny Handle etc
