Cap'n,
"I have the utmost respect for Maccoll as a writer and performer."
I'm sure that's a weight off his mind!
He questioned your taste in music - the bastard - that's worth an eternity of roasting in Hell at least. He criticised your buying an American record - oh come on, give us a break! He must have gone through hell living with Peggy.
Snail,
Peggy was aware of what the Weavers, and Pete were doing - and had things to say about it on occasion!
I seem to have missed the point somewhere, WMD appeared to be criticising Peggy for what The Weavers did - have I got that wrong.
Couldn't agree more about what they did to poor Irene.
