WWhy don't you fellas drop the pissing contest and then "
Happily - but it's a little difficult when serious suggestions are met with personal abuse - read through the suggestions and responses.
Singing workshops have been one of my main interests since was invited to join MacColl's Critics Group in 1969.
I have amassed an archive of information on relaxation and voice exercises, song analysis that has been researched and carried out by the Group which I have always been happy to pass on when asked.
It is by no means the only work on singing carried out on singing, but it represents seven years of fairly intensive work carried out by a single group of fairly well-established singers over such a period - some of those singers, MacColl, Seeger, Frankie Armstrong.... being leading figures both in singing and in workshop training.
I don't expect expected people to fall on their faces and accept the conclusions of this work, but, as a member of a democratic forum I do expect a fair hearing, uninterrupted by personal abuse from a single individual.
The work is there for debate - such debate has been made virtually impossible by Dick's behaviour here.
Sorry folks - I have no interest in people using threads to promote themselves whenever the opportunity arises - I'm far too old for all this and it's not why I signed up for this man's army!!!
