"Our problem with Jim is that he seems to have difficulty
distinguishing his subjective opinions
from objective factual reality.."
Once again yuo are choosing to insult me rather than answer my points - which tend to confirm they are striking home
The factual realty ifs that folk song is no longer the stuff that the folk scene is made of - that has now become obvious when folk rock - an experimental genre largely rejected a couple of decades ago when Steeleye and Pentangle hung up their spurs, is put up as being folk narrative, when it obviously is exactly the opposite
I have explained why and I have also outlined the massive damage that has been done to both the club scene and the music that represents (to borrow Topic's phrase) 'The Voice of the People
If I can do that without insulting anyone here, I would have thought that could be returned (without the nastiness) - pleae
I'm supposed to be the nasty one
