Yes, he could be an awkward sod Ewan MacColl. Talented guy though, a key figure in the folk revival and he wrote some wonderful stuff. Although Roberta Flack's smoky version of The First Time... is wonderful, I actually prefer the natural innocence of Peggy Seeger's. They're both fantastic of course, so you takes your pick.....

Lucky you, china. Been kind of out if it myself these last few days but it's probably the pneumonia... Her album, 'Chalk Mark in a Rainstorm' is an album I played to death when it came out (1988). Listened to it again for the first time in many years recently and it still sounds fresh and full, still has all that airiness and colour. She brought in many guests: Peter Gabriel, Thomas Dolby, Don Henley, Tom Petty and even Billy Idol! Wayne Shorter and the amazing Manu Katché on the kit. If you're not familiar check it out.
