Steve Gardham discussion of A.L.Lloyd's singing (82* d) RE: discussion of A.L.Loyd's singing 20 May 20

Hi Ray
They say imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. I can't say I've ever heard anyone consciously imitate Bert, but then again, neither have I Ewan, except as a take-off.

Then again of all the revival Bert was the most used 'source' but of course not a 'source' singer in the sense we tend to use it today.

I don't think Bert's singing voice was that much different from his speaking voice, quiet and unassertive mostly, particularly from someone who was very much a guru to younger singers.
