@LadyDiamond. What a very interesting thread you've started. I am old and have been around; the best quote I have on this subject is from Mr Tom McConville, famous fiddle player who on occasiion used to play at my side and make me sound really good, on discussing the meanness of some musicians with their knowledge and skills, replied "Why naw man! Music's fer sharin'" (He's a bit Geordie). So, if I haven't made myself clear, you sing love and let the audience tell you if they don't like it. If that's the case, there's always the bath or bicycle rides. I think Sandy Denny's voice was a bit 'posh'. Ah who knows where the time goes?
