We were on holiday once on a walk and passed a couple of complete strangers when the man said to me out of the blue:"Are you Mr Barraclough?". Well I wasn't, but he just carried on with no explanation. I'm sure this was before the Porridge tv series and I'm not tall enough to be mistaken for that character played by Brian Wilde, though I do wear a flat 'at like his Foggy character. Ever since when we found footprints like the distinctive pattern of my walking boots we said: "Mr Barraclough has been past here".
One night in the club, both the editor of Blues in Britain, Fran Leslie, and visiting guitarist, Guy Tortora thought they'd met me before (they hadn't). Maybe the "face made for radio" is Zelig-like?
