GUEST,Hootenanny Review: New book - Singing from the Floor (168* d) RE: Review: New book Singing from the floor 18 Feb 14


As you rightly observed "he missed the best bits", and if that wikipaedia (is that a reliable source?)entry is a summary of his musical activity I don't see why he was chosen unless it's to hopefully get sales from the pop pickers or whoever his fans are. Anyway it's only one page out of over four hundred and it doesn't matter. One thing I would say is that in that one page he sort of blames the folk club scene "arguably" as being responsible for "Punk" and I for one deny any responsibility for that crap.
The vast majority of the contributors were there, and if you were there you are almost certainly going to get an entertaining read.

Finally just in case you feel I am pushing this book, I have absolutely no connection with it apart from having been able to read it a little early.
