John Charles,
I am not sure of the ethical nature of your repeating some thing of no relevance to this thread ,a gig that I did at READIFOLK .
However I received this reply from Readifolk ORGANISERS.

       Readifolk - Reading Folk Club It was great to see you at Readifolk too, Dick!
   Here are my own recollections of the night there were several people who turned up especially to see me, Geoff Bibby,Marion Pitman being amongst them,a number of people said how much they enjoyed the evening and how good it was to see me again, I also sold a number of cds
Vic,But my point is that reviews need to be constructive honest and balanced, my review was honest but was only balanced if you take Brendan Behans quote of a well balanced man being one with two chips on his shoulder.
The point is that my vocals are not decidely uninspired neither am I an embarassment as a blues singer
although I agree i am not as good as Mance or john hurt, and possibly sing traditional material better, however it is useful on occasions to have a varied repertoire, To suit different clubs.
one of the secrets of performing[as you know] is to be able to adapt and to sus out an audience.
