Subject: RE: Rearing a Folk-Singer
mine, like Nancy's, has been surrounded by folk music and been to 18 Getaways in his 20 years....but always disdained it in favor of 'pop'...until...*grin*...Ren Faires and ersatz 'Shanty' groups, and now he is slooooowwwwly moving into it all...and just got elected 'member-at-large' in FSGW!.....his tastes are still FAR more eclectic than mine, but I'll bequeath him 700-800 folk albums, tapes and CDs and he'll absorb a lot of it...

you can't 'push', but you can show...
