Thanks Vic, it's impressive that you have such an encylopedic knowledge of these McColl related sites - I feel sure that you will know I was the OP for:
"Although from his life's that MacColl saw himself as a man of the left with total commitment to the working class, his trousers had a dubious middle class look about them.
How come so many people did not recognise them as the clue to his class treachery? Can we really hear those Radio Ballads again knowing he was in those trousers when he putting together those great tales of working class struggle, not from a working position, from the comfort of those trousers? "
But still the mystery goes on
