Peter, at least you said "to my ears" which indicates it is merely an opinion. I am sure there are artists amongst your favourites that are not my cup of tea either but I would not dream of suggesting, as some do, that my taste in music is any better than yours. Just different.

And, no, it was not posted as an indication of anything. Just trying in vain to bring Jim up to date. No need to feel sorry for me. I am lucky in that I can enjoy traditional, unaccompanied, accoustic, electric, contemporary, fusion and many other types of folk music. If there are some you do not like it is no skin off my nose.

Jim. "Game, Set and Match". Really? Sounds remarkably like "you lose". Are you channelling someone?
