"By the way, I am a Show Of Hands fan, and as Phil Beer has said, one of his favorite fiddle players was John Hartford, so the country influence is fairly obvious. Oh shit, I shouldn't have said that. WAV is going to say that not only should the singing of English music sound English, but the fiddle playing should as well, which means Show Of Hands may have just gone down another notch in his book."

Oh goodness me, Steve Knightley was accused of 'singing in the wrong accent' a VERY long time ago 'irishenglish', by an er...English Traditionalist in here (not WAV)

It led to The War of the Words, so best not to mention that too loudly in here. ;-)

Great to hear that you like their music though.
