[Mock Turtle]

Well here is a list of some that could have been included - Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Donovan, Suzanne Vega, the Albion Band, Dolly and Shirley Collins, The Incredible String Band, the Oyster Band, Roy Harper, the Ian Campbell Folk Group, The Watersons, amongst the many others that no doubt could also have been included.

Not notice my comment - I thought we should get the worst ones over first. But some, as cited, do stand on their own, and surely you like some of The Stranglers (the immortal Golden Brown, for example)?
