I was first introduced to Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger at MSG by my friend Terry Whelan
My favourite memory of the place was, after E and P's performance we were standing talking to them outside when a beautiful Jaguar car pulled up at the pavement and a pretty young man in a roll-necked sweater stepped out and headed for the night-club next door
My mate Barry whispered in reverent tones, "That's Georgie Best"
"Who's Georgie Best?" asked Peggy
"Only the best footballer in the Universe" Barry replied
Peggy hastily scrabbled in her tote back, pulled out a notebook and ran after him to get autograph
She returned looking sheepish and said, "For my son Calum, you understand"
