GUEST,Winger Speaking ill of the dead. (140* d) RE: Speaking ill of the dead. 24 Oct 07

Thanks, Capn'n, quoting those statistics might help to extinguish the persecution complex exhibited by those who refuse to allow any discussion about MacColl that goes beyond his singing.

I have never criticized him for changing his name; neither have I mocked him for cupping his hand over his ear.

What I did ask about was his pre-folk revival years; in particular about the World War II years. I've learned a little about that from the discussions on Mudcat but I will continue to seek more knowledge about it.

Why? Because I'm interested, that's why. I'd like to know how he formed his opinions and who influenced him. There - my hidden agenda has been revealed.
