I notice your sub heading is:

"Intelligent Writing on Musical Life"

I'm just wondering if Tony's writing will be any more intelligent than his extraordinary and ill advised outburst on the radio, recently?

Someone else might think you put Tony up to it, just to drum up some extra business for this issue!

Ah now, Ptarmy - this would have been commissioned and written long before the recent unfortunate incident.

Have to agree, he is an idiot after stating on RTE that Alec Finn and Ringo of De Dannan were second rate musicians

As for this crap mag forget it..

I think Journal of Muisic (in Ireland) is one of the better mags - as for Irish Music Magazine, its a commercial rag. Same faces on the cover each issue. They charge you for an interview you know.

McMahon even had a pompous face on him back in 1950, reminds me of BP Fallon, who thought he was one of the Beatles!
