A few posts up the thread, before MacColl's name had been mentioned so much, I chipped in without realising my cookie had gone, and finished up as an unidentified guest. Belatedly I checked I'd got the right spelling of MacColl, and to do so I googled Ewan and "Peggy Seeger" and pressed the "lucky" button.

The page to which I was taken was, I have to admit, quite interesting. And the article makes some valid points. At the same time, it reeks of the archness that afflicted certain members of the Critics Group and got up many noses.

HERE it is. (Health warning: Roger the Skiffler should take tranquilisers before clicking on this link.)
