Thank you Jeezus! (or the Deity of your choice) So far not one person has quoted Bill Broonzy's "horse" homily!
Sham, after having a half a year to think it over - I'm still right - and you're still wrong! Quality HAS gone down. (please don't make me say "smile, grin, grin, NFOI")
Dick, after having one day to think it over, the term "folk" hasn't meant anything since I picked up a banjo in 1960. (I didn't personally destroy the term, I meant that's when I first noticed the proliferation of writers who had been influenced by traditional music rather than pop.)
