Not sure what you mean, Dick, I'm already a big fan of the Wilsons. Unaccompanied harmony singing is my favourite music of all. I've also got nothing against a simple accompaniment (I also accompany myself sometimes, just to make a change from naked vocals). And I love it if I'm singing solo and someone puts in a harmony.

What I'm less happy about is when a perfectly good traditional solo singer who already accompanies him/herself decides to get a group of instrumentalists around them and becomes a just a lead vocalist in a band. It may sound fine for some songs, but if they do this for their whole repertoire, it doesn't do justice to many traditional songs, or indeed to the singer.
