This thread is clearly about the biography "Class Act". It is not about his singing, his religion or his trousers...it is about this
particular biography.
If you wish to discuss his singing , open another thread..(as If another McColl thread were needed) For the most part this discussion has been intelligent and respectful. I have learned much about McColl and would appreciate it Jim, if your unfettered hero worship, would not get in the way of informed discussion.
