Move?
Should this be moved to "The Houghton Weavers"? They appear to use the "The" as part of their name. —Centrx→talk • 19:54, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

The Original Houghton Weavers
So can anyone tell me the difference? There's a batch of CDs with seemingly the same tracklist under both names. In Spotify there's some subtle differences in both tracks. All a bit confusing. Can't find out what the situation is.
