So I was playing out at yet another open mic night. (wince/groan)
And I played the tune I uploaded part of here, ("My Friend" from New Rays of The Rising Sun, my version) so this guy starts talking to me after I finish. He goes on for a while and then said something that hit my utterly by surprise. He stated the he thought the tune was actually very much a "FOLK" tune.
I didn't know what to say as "FOLK" in my dictionary is yet another 4 letter word that starts with F and ends with K.
I just was curious to see if anyone else thought it came under the "FOLK" genre. I don't see it. Even if the original was a folk tune, I still don't think my version is "FOLK".
Let me know what you think. I will put up a poll for those that just want to click the little button and not reply.
I thank you for your opinions in advance.
