I was so totally gobsmacked by June Tabor's electrifying performance of Hughie Graeme that I hadn't taken the slightest notice of what she was wearing. Only a few weeks ago though, I'd seen her at the Barbican Freedom Highway concert and conversation and I was impressed at how well she looked. A pensioner? If I could look half as good when I reach retirement age I'll be well pleased. And if I could ever sing a millionth as well...such a presence.

So I've just checked back to the video streaming on the BBC site. June looks fine to me while Joan Baez resembles a pop diva.
