Dick, you will find the only time I use the word 'hacks' is when quoting you-know-who. I usually call them ballad writers or similar. What you have posted there and here is a jumbled mess of misunderstandings. If you are going to use my name have the courtesy to quote me correctly. I have never said anywhere that 5% of our songs date from pre-printing presses. If anyone wants to know what I have said on these matters it is posted accurately on numerous threads here.
