Thread Name: Peggy Seeger on Desert Island Discs
Subject: RE: Peggy Seeger on Desert Island Discs
Her introduction of 'Joy of Living was so moving - it's a long time since I had a tear in my eye from a radio prog. One thing that intrigued me was her comment that she didn't consider herself a folk musician because she was 'too well educated, musically'. I'd be interested to know what others think - not about whether or not Peggy Seeger is a folk musician, but whether being musically educated and a folkie are mutually exclusive.
