28 Dec 09 - 04:13 PM (#2797949) Subject: susan boyle /dick miles From: The Sandman Susan Boyle's naming of Elaine Paige has resulted in Elaine's music being introduced to a far wider audience, particularly in the USA. I was thinking, what if Susan had mentioned fellow performer Dick Miles instead of Elaine? Now, that would have been interesting. For any of our non-UK Mudcatters, who don't knowDick, here is a link to Dick singing Willy of The Winsbury which, of course, was written by that well-known French folk singer A.Non http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0zAr1t6nTE |
