"Who's centenary next year."
Oh dear - not ***** again
He was christened James Henry Miller (not "Jimmy")
He had his name changed - no more "disputed" than Robert Zimmmermann changing his name to Bob Dylan)
One day people will actually get round to discussing MacColl's work rather than this 'Two-Sheds Jackson' nonsense
"Who's centenary next year"
It's the 100 th anniversary of MacColl's birth on Burns Night next January
"Full English"
Has our collection finally gone up on Full English?
"Jim, your own memories of MacColl and Seeger are scattered across Mudcat"
Did our final interview with Bob Blair yesterday for the programmes - broadcast dates set for either side of the anniversary.
