That's interesting I would have thought Harry Cox was most certainly of the traditional folk song singer as is Walter Pardon, Sam Larner, Arthur Howard, Frank Hinchliffe ilk

How is Harry Cox not a traditional folk singer Jim Carroll, is Nick winding us up?


Contemporary folk singers and singer songwriters are totally different and some singers fall into the realms of revivalist and traditionalist but I aint bovvered about definitions ~ they are ALL folk singers if they are singing folk songs ~ traditional or not!!
