Subject: RE: Reflections/Criticism of Peter Kennedy
to Scrump. I think that hewas trying to claim it as an arrangement, which of course is wrong artistically and morally[ without their permission].
but all this suggests to me someone who was trying to make a few pence wherever he could ,rather than someone who has made thousands out of exploiting source singers.Iam not excusing it just trying to get a clearer picture of the man. perhaps if he had been properly funded from the english government this may have never happened. on the two occasions i met him i found him a charming , generous man and i still treasure his books that i they have given me great pleasure.
