The comparison with jazz is certainly interesting.
Incidenrally Nick, I believe we both started our recording careers at Steve Adams studio, near Polesworth.
I think your list of 'stars' is in many ways so indicative of where we are. They're not really household names, and jazz is similar. In the 60's we had Dylan and Miles Davis. Nowadays we have Richard Exhall and your good self. Both terrific musicians.

But as Thunderclap Newman said - Something in the Air - I'd take some convincing.
