Well, Jim, A very large number of us would buy Nic Jones' early albums if they came out (properly - I won't dwell on that again) on CD. Of that I'm certain. The other thing is your remark: "...I tend towards the school of thought that suggests that it was the idiosyncratic, hiccoughy, over-accompanied style of singing that Bill seemed to favour which nudged it off course in the first place..." Have you actually listened to Nic Jones accompanying himself? His guitar-playing, so apt for his voice, was wonderful, and your comment is way off-beam. I'm inclined to think you may be in a minority of one among thousands if you really meant your remark to apply to Nic. Blimey!
