"Lizzie, how in the devil can you bad mouth one of the icons of our craft and then kneel down in front of yousef flotsam or whatever his name is now. Cat Stevens made a tremendous contribution to the art and I am sorry he faded away, but to belittle Ewan McCall !! Good Golly !! Take a Midol and sit on it for awhile !!"


I suggest you sit on whatever that is yourself Les.   I haven't 'bad-muothed' Ewan at all. I merely put a question into the arena. You've no idea what I think. Please calm down and....sit down.

Oh..and by the way, I've just got back from seeing John Tams and Barry Coope performing at Otterton Mill and John was talking a great deal about Ewan. I'd tell you what he had to say, but I'd only get an hysterical reaction. Shame really, as it was really interesting.

I've certainly learnt a lot from this thread anyway.

Thanks Les....
