No faint praise at all Andy. I merely pointed out a couple of errors. Read what I wrote again. Please check the caption beneath the photograph taken at The Roundhouse with Jack Elliott and a back view of Big Bill Broonzy. Is the 12 string player identified as Cyril Davies ? If so then this must be a newer edition. I wouldn't think that the first printing has sold out but I could be wrong. I did mention the errors to one of the guys at Faber when we were playing together some months back and we did agree that no matter how hard you try shit still happens. If you want to know more about Cyril Davies for whom I once handled bookings and used at the Ballads and Blues Club. Keep your eyes open. There is a book in the works. NOT by me. As I said in my post above If you weren't around at the time this book captures things pretty well. Perhaps I should add "even if like me you were.
