Thread Name: How reliable is Folk History ?
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: How reliable is Folk History ?
"Having your "roots in fact" is not the same as reliable or accurate fact"
Nobody has suggested it is - as I said, itdepends on the research put into the subject
Attempting to separate the two is insane
David "peers" are as likely to have their own agendas when judging the works of others as are those who made songs
I take it that we're finished with the nonsense of made matches being "uncorroborated"
All this is exr=temely unhelpful and unproductive
