Well, it's not often that I agree with The Sandman but I share the sentiments of both above posts.

WTF has Yusuf Islam / Cat Stevens / Stevie Adams or whatever alias he choses next got to do with Folk Music ?

Seems nobody at the BBC knows the real thing any more now than they did in 2015. What a joke.

This is the second time today that I have been amused by the term "Folk"
I read this morning that Taylor Swift (who she?) has turned to folk music for her new album and has written all the songs herself. Also that she has even adopted the "folkie jumper look". So obviously she is authentic circa 1964 or so.

What crap!
