Subject: RE: 'Mother Songs' of the tear-jerker variety
If the MC has done any single-service to the gargoyle's education....

It is.....

How much fr***ng c**p exists in the world of "folk."

Insiped Inaighn Infantile C*****

Before the MC my broadest source was "Child's" and later "Randolph"....

Susan and Dick..... you MUST draw the line somewhere .... TRAD is traditional .... its roots lie in souls past by....they have been winnowed in the winds of the world.....and the chaff has sifted out....leaving the grain....the truth....the verse.

Because some drunk in a Malaysia added a verse to a traditional tune does not make it TRAD.

Thankful there is a steady hand at the helm.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle
