Dear Eliza C., I hope you didn't take my post as an attack on folk pro's, most of whom I hold in high regard. I only wish I could perform as well as that. I meant that I think folk music is not generic and cannot be categorised. I've heard folkies working their way through the Beatles songbook, the Fred Astaire songs, Buddy Holley, 'I Dreamt I dwelt in Marble Halls,' and the like. And who hasn't? While they were singing, it was folk music, but not with a studio recording and orchestral backing. Just the way I feel.
