Back to the plot Was it me or did Martin Carthy struggle? Was Roy Harper getting carried away Where was Ralph Mactell with 'One too many mornings'? i used to hear him do it every week at the half moon Herne Hill, and G Gil. Only a handful of us present @week oops drifting |

Carthy's voice is gone, Bragg never had one. The young American kid was a disgrace, Roy Harper was worse. That only left the girl and Odetta who were excellent. What a shambles of a shower of crawlers using Dylan to show off their own lack of talent. |

Yeah, on the full one, the young American kid did a not-bad version of "To Ramona" but then bored me with 2 of his own songs. Actually, I liked Martin Carthy, even though his voice wasn't at its best, I still liked the performance of "Hattie Carroll" and I even liked Scarborough Fair, had no objection to that seeing as Dylan borrowed the lyrics for Girl from the north country but it was the other people doing their own songs that got up my nose! it made it not so much a Dylan tribute concert, more a showcase, with people sometimes doing Dylan songs. PAH!! but I completely agree with KT Tunstall - she was brilliant, and also ONLY DID DYLAN SONGS... which is what everyone should have done for gods sake!!! KT Tunstall is indeed a very talented artist. |

Have bought KT's CD on strength of her performance - it is very good in my opinion. |
