PS What was The Shambles' last (italicized) post about? Was something missing?

It was an extract by Vic Smith, showing an example of where it more than implies that 'source singer' is one who is good enough to 'steal' material from - but not good enough themselves, to actually perform this material.

Overall, I would have to say that the songs, fine versions all, are more interesting than the singer.
