Thread Name: Whatever happened to Matt McGinn? (1928-1977)
Subject: RE: Whatever happened to Matt McGinn?
The guy that wrote the aricle in the Scotsman couldn't have been at the concert in May because that was much more than a small concert; that was a splendid example of the talent, not only of Matt McGinn, but the talent that a city like Glasgow can offer to the world.

The range of material which just one man had written was astounding and the way it was interpreted through gospel style, drums, pop rythms, people reading poerty, and just good old folk music made for EXCELLENT entertainment. It was a very memorable night and I, like Big Tim, will be looking out to see when the concert is in New York; it sounds like great excuse to re-visit the place.
