Al Whittle. The man who is to music what Lord Franklin was to cartography.

If you sold a few more songs and got a few more gigs, you'd probably sink the proceeds into property too Al. Most successful heros of yours do.

The pathetic hypocrisy of chippy buggers who whine about the trials and tribulations of making a crust on the music threads whilst berating those who got off their arse in the BS threads are worthy of ridicule. I just provide it, that's all.

Our posts crossed it seems. Gutcher confused me by saying I had failed in something. I stopped failing in 1985 when I stopped having others decide my future and started ploughing my own furrow. Dunno what he is on about. I do rather well out of my Scottish investments. Having such a stake, I tend to also have my say and my say doesn't seem to strike resonance with romantic nationalism.

The songs above are wonderful eh? Did you know , North Korea has a satellite constantly broadcasting patriotic songs? It too reckons people respond to propaganda through music rather than analysis of information.
