A "dedicated Communist"....:0)

This from Gaughan is nearer the mark.... "Perhaps the only real way to remember and understand Hamish is to embrace the apparent contradictions - poet and polemicist, Internationalist and Nationalist, warrior and pacifist, realist and romantic, traditionalist and modernist, brashness masking shyness, intellectual confidence hiding personal insecurities."

Don't get me wrong I am an admirer of his work, an artist, not a "dedicated" anything.
