As the good soldier mentions a wish to fight with Ewan by Bob Davenport I can add that he was not alone. I am sure that I mentioned this on a previous thread, but one night at the Ballads and Blues Club when it was held at the Horshoes in Tottenham Court Road. Dominic Behan was there. I can't remember if he was a guest that night or whether he had just dropped in as many did in those days. Anyway the subject of Alan Lomax came up and Dominic was of the opinion that when Lomax was collecting in Ireland he would often pay his informants by giving them a bottle of guiness. Ewan took exception to this and the upshot was that Malcolm Nixon had to jump in and keep them apart. All part of the night's entertainment.
