"Brexit is a bit more important, Jim. "
What kind of answer is that Dave ?
Ther removal of a large slice of worin history wil damage working people's perception of themselves forever
Brexit, whatever the ourtcome will pass into history like the memory of the bad fart it is
" Are you really saying that unless it is in one of the books you mention, it is not folk music"
Please do not distort my words Dave
I don't need a book to recognize a folk song - they are merely confirming records
We have talked inteminaly about making new songs using the old models - tyou suggestion is sheer dishonesty
I pointed out that you have no agreed definition - your silence and obvious evasion confirms that
