Captain Birdseye

Bob must have thought like Fred Jordan,that this was what the revival required him to do.

Despite the Captain's tendency to refer to him in the past tense, Bob is alive and well and in fine voice when I saw him doing a floorspot at the Young Copper's booking at the Royal Oak, Lewes last week.

To anybody who knows him the idea that he would do anything because he thought that it was required of him is absurd. He's an intelligent adult human being, not a child doing his party piece.

This interview with Vic Smith contains a lot that is relevant to this thread.
