Subject: RE: BBC Blues show
Hey Will,

You omited to mention Paul Oliver. He had a number of programmes on BBC at a time when Blues records in the UK were as rare as hen's teeth and at that time was the most knowledgeable.

Re your comments I agree wholeheartedly. I gave up on Paul Pond years back. Surprised to know that he was still at it.

Re you previous comments on Sandy MacPherson I remember how much I disliked hearing that as a kid. Listening to Edward Sturton last week reading excerpts from his book "Auntie's War" about the wartime BBC it seems that I was far from alone.
