allright Jim, but what makes you think your 'understanding of the traditional arts' is the right one.

Its an imprecise world - I have noticed.

People define themselves in the way that makes them feel able to be productive, happy and possessing of a modicum of dignity.

Homosexuals like to called gay. Dustmen like to be called refuse disposal men. Des O'Connor likes to be called an entertainer.

I bet the Captain didn't have to work his way up from being a midshipman. he chose to call himself Captain, and he seems to want to call himself a traditional singer.

Give him a break!
