Hi John ,
I wouldn`t argue seriously with any of your comments but what we were given 
at the Royal Concert were in general the people who had been chart toppers 
not necessarily the best in the business.
The 3 B`s had all been in the charts or consistently in the public eye during 
the last 50 years, remember Balls long booking with Morecombe and Wise for 
instance, and would at least have been somewhat representative of OKOM.
What did we get?. Zilch!

Cheers

Pat
