This is the problem is'nt it? Especially over here. We have this image of thigh slapping and Dolly Parton talking about another lover lost. There are probably a great deal of quality artists out there that get buried under all the dross. Folk gets the same wrap over here too. The image is not indicative of the genre at all.
