Peter.
Thanks for that!
Having listened again, the redoubtable Mr C, is playing very much a supporting role with the band, and seems to sit in the mix nicely, providing a supporting role for Junes atmospheric delivery. Personally, I wouldn't have lifted him any higher in the mix. Shame that History Man was left on the floor but, then, it was a JT gig after all!
All this reminds of a PA gig at a fest with a (now defunct)very fine English Dance Band many years ago.
I was approached by a very "cheerful" Morris man, who berated me for the fact that the melodeon wasn't loud enough.

I dutifully boosted the level to satisfy him, knowing full well that it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference, as the tune being played was Sax led, in Bb, and the box player was at the bar!! Could I convince him??!!...

Regards Ralphie, and Congrats to BBC4 for even trying.
