Thread Name: Lyr Add: Northern City (Ewan MacColl)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Northern City (Ewan MacColl)
"Later this year there will be a biography on MacColl published which, I hope, will focus on his work as a singer, actor, director and playwrite -"

And not before time, Jim! I went into my local Waterstones, the other day, and was shocked to find a whole bookcase devoted to Robert Zimmerman - some of the books were multi-volume tomes that could 'stop' a dozen doors (talk about overkill !!).

Of course, I failed to find a single volume devoted to MacColl - a much more talented and significant figure than Dylan (aka Zimmerman) ever was!
