Thread Name: Origins of traditional songs
Subject: RE: Origins of traditional songs
I am of the opinion, the old songs were composed by both Broadside writers and ordinary people who did not do it for money making reasons
Once you have included all the people who want to make money from an activity and all the people who don't care about making money from that same activity, you have covered all the people who are involved.
