Subject: RE: Battle of Bosworth Field (Dick Miles)
A great song Dick!

I am a Richard 3 fan, and I think you should send this to Steeleye or perhaps some up and coming folk rock outfit like Something Nasty in the Woodshed, who would do themselves a bit of good with a hit record.

You are missing a trick by not having some Richard 3 tags in your list. he's the one Birish monarch who has a fan club - courtesy of Shakespeare/ laurence Olivier/ Joephine Tey et.

if you do a video for You Tube bear in mind the Battle Field Site/nick some clips from the olivier film/ also the his grave in Tewksbury Cathedral - where his fans have an annual knees up.

You should contact the fan club - I think they're called The daughters of Time - after Tey's novel. Sorry if I'm teaching my grandmother to suck eggs - the old showbiz hustler mode kicks in!

How about the RSC, are they contemplating a production? a gig there would do you no harm.
