I'm not his biggest fan but I have to admit he just gets it. He never, ever misses the point.

I'm watching him now on the BBC in the Pete Seeger sessions and it's absolutely fookin' spot on, bullseye; you might even say he TICKS ALL THE BOXES!

A single handed redefintion of folk-rock. Stupendous.

I'm so glad you said that. There's so much trash on TV these days that I often don't check to see what's on, and didn't spot this until too late.

Never connected with him in 30-ish years Mr Head, although I've tried, but on your recommendation I'll have a gleg. :grin:
