Subject: RE: How much should I expect to spend on banjo?
Well...see, uh Mick.. uhh, the Dylan connection was that in an interview he told Irwin Siber (who had asked why he didn't credit his sources) that he didn't really steal songs. They were all just out there floatin' around and he just reeled them in to use with his poetry. So I was just kind of makin' a little joke about your reference to the "mountains of Mourne" tune. Same thing with Clancys etc. I don't ACTUALLY think they're authentic. What I want to know is who first brought the Greek Bouzouki to a session?
See what happens when you ask a simple question, Mary?
