Folk, roots, trad, singer-songwriter.... why are we worrying so much about labels? All this over-analyzing just detracts from the music itself. Being old-school I will call it folk which to me is all-inclusive. I don't know why people are afraid of the "f" word but that isn't the important thing. Isn't it a kick that people are listening to the O Brother soundtrack who really could care less what it is called?
