Thread Name: How old is a traditional song?
Subject: RE: How old is a traditional song?
Good question.

Answer:-------If a person writes a song and sings it for another person without naming the author/composer --- and that person sings it for someone else with no info changing hands and no bother at all with any copyrights of any kind at all, even if only ten minutes has crept by on the clock, it is a full-blown traditional song.
