Hi Mike

Susan pointed out this thread to me.

I remember reading one of your articles a while ago where you complained bitterly about the amateurish quality of some of the recordings that you receive.
Now I consider myself a singer but, as I am a piss poor guitar player (You've heard me), I am very hesitant about sending you a CD, especially as I know your talent.

So tell me, have your views changed at all? If you are prepared to accept a singer/songwriter who mostly tries not to stray to far from tradition then I'll send you a CD.

But I don't want to waste your time on something which doesn't appeal to you.

Bert Hansell.
