Native Bob, lets just say that was an interesting post and I’ll leave it at that. However, one of his comments does bring up a very valid point. We have all seen the recorders going at a dance, but how many singers actually research the song from that point? I’ll say that with southern singers, I’ve have found that only about 1/8 to 1/4 of them actually take the time to do the research, the rest just sing the song how they think it sounds causing an array of problems.
DCP, I’ll agree that northern songs can sometimes be harder to research. In spite of this, I think that if the newer groups out there would just ask some questions – I think they would find the information they receive very useful.
Just my opinions.
