This is probably heresy to some, but I think it's arguable that
Clough's was only one possible way of playing and the one most
approved of at the time. there may be more. There is a
difference between "bad" and "different" isn't there? As between
"wrong" and "not to my taste" or "not in my tradition".
I'll add a quote from Martin Carthy
"Tradition moves, tradition progresses and is not a pile of
stones."
Yours in blissful choyting.

P.S. Any luck in defining a folk instrument yet? Very quiet on
that front I note.
