GUEST,Jm Carroll Speaking ill of the dead. (140* d) RE: Speaking ill of the dead. 25 Oct 07


"Jim Carroll,I am talking about an occassion when Padraig Okeefe,turned up for a paid engagement too pissed to play properly,"
Cap'n,
And I am not talking of a couple of isolated incidents, but of whole careers peppered by occasions of turning up pissed and being unable to perform, and not just Campbell,
Poppycock is a nice comfort-blanket to hide behind if you have no argument.
Nor am I talking of just 'name-change' or the Mudcat Forum regarding a serious discussion of MacColl, nor am I just citing Winger or any other individual. I am talking about a career spanning over half a century.
Where have you ever encountered a serious debate of his singing and his ideas on singing that hasn't been choked up by the weeds of tabloidese trivia?
I repeat my question - is MacColl to be included on the R.I.P. list?
Jim Carroll
