Subject: RE: Susan Boyle/Barbara Dickson!
hi

I agree with what you say about Barbara Dickson.

I have "known" her since she first came down to Liverpool from Scotland....and have followed her career interestedly ever since.

Though I don't agree that she is more attractive now than then.

I preferred her in "folk mode" but my own favourite performance of hers is Caravans.

There is a reason - some...nay many years ago I was all alone at home on New Years Day with flu. Feeling dreadful. On the radio came Barbara singing Caravans and I immdiately felt much better. That was the first time I had heard this.
