Pete is much more popular in England and Europe than he is in the good ole USofA. Personally, I think he should be a huge star here, but Folk music in general is not that popular. Why? I don’t know, it is one of my preferred genres. It has nice melodies and words that frequently cause you to think or tell a nice story.
