al whittle , you are of course referring to peggy seeger. i agree it was a minor thing to get upset about.
however, i am grateful to MacColl and Seeger for directing us towards our own indigenous material, we discoverd some great material some great story songs. 12 bar blues have fairly predictable storylines [with a few excptions] and predictable chord progressions [with a few exceptions] as for the [present crop of songwriters] 50 percent of what is written is forgettable.
