Hi Brian,
Ah yes, agreed.

Yes, Dave's obsessive agenda certainly spoiled what could have been a brilliant book using the same title.

Ewan's interviewing must have been outstanding to come up with the material he had for the Radio Ballads. However, I often regret not having had any training. I do think that I could have missed lots of valuable information as I was largely interested in the songs themselves and had little time to delve into the lives of the singers.
