I should start off by saying that my dad is not keen on folk music (loves jazz and show tunes), but would attend concerts because Mom and I enjoyed it so much.

Back in the 90's I did an opening set for Lou and Peter Berryman at The Ark in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Mom and Dad both came along to support me. After listening to 4-5 songs from Lou and Peter, Dad turned to me and said, "I don't consider this to be real folk music. This is really good!"
