A great artist, in my opinion, in theatre and song, and very encouraging to youngsters. There aren't many who would invite you up on stage to play concertina on Shoals of Herring with himself and Peggy - and no warning! Ewan and Peggy lent us a mandolin one time for a good six months, and again there's not many would do that, in my experience. So, if he wasn't flavour of the month with some, I can only shrug and say I speak as I find.
