GUEST,Gordon T Lyr Req: 'Song' John Clare (30) RE: Lyr Req: 'Song' John Clare 20 Nov 06

Specifically to michaelr - I did an entire album of Clare material,called A Distance From The Town.No permission was asked of anyone,why should it be?
To me the idea that someone feels he can own a dead authors' work purely through the agency of buying that right both arrogant and impertinent.Prof Robinson may well have academic authority,but if his work is of value it should be able to stand up against other's appraisals of Clare.
