Subject: 'It's all right to like...'
Chucking out the old newspapers today I noticed a headline on a piece about changes in musical tastes, saying "It's all right to like..." some out of fashion musicians.

And I started thinking how I loathe that kind of idea that our tastes in music, or in anything else, should be governed by whether "it's all right" to like something, rather than whether we actually do like that thing.

And then I thought it'd be interesting to find out if there are performers and types of music that Mudcatters like, but sometimes find themselves being a bit embarrassed to admit to liking.

I'll throw in Doris Day and Rolf Harris.
