Maybe it's just me, but I don't see that as a problem. You can still appreciate a song, if the writer wasn't like you. Are you saying I shouldn't like B&S because I'm not a shy scotsman? Or that I shouldn't like Pulp because I didn't go to art school?
This is so right. If I could only identify with artists who had similar life experiences to me I'd be in real trouble. Am I the only person who thought that the Nick Drake documentary was really rather good? Maybe its because I never go into these things expecting much, but I really did think it was quite original and unusual in format, and very honest in terms of presenting lots of different viewpoints etc. Of course it skipped over all the technical musical details but it didn't pretend to be anything other than a study of the man himself, and a lesson in music theory is hardly suited to television. Well, that's just what I think. By the way Stuart, I have this horrible creeping feeling that I never actually thanked you for the sessions and demos you sent me. If so, I'm sooo sorry. I'll certainly be going without supper tonight. THANK YOU. The tape was great. Here are some answers for your questions: 1 . Freshly laundered sock seeks clothes peg. Must have firm grip. 2 . Lonely clothes peg with firm grip seeks laundry for hours of fun in the back yard. 3 . Probably. 4 . Melted over hot crumpets. 5 . It simply has to be an aubergine. 6 . Well, I wouldn't know about this one now would I.....
