Good one Robert!
I actually had my Godrich & Dixon 'Blues and Gospel Records' 
discography open at the index when the penny dropped regarding Thomas 
Hawke.

So far as Edward Hatchett on those 1930 Kaiser Clifton sides is 
concerned I agree, nice stuff, but wouldn't describe his 'axe' as 
'Mortonesque'.  Except perhaps for a glimmer in "Teach Me Right From 
Wrong".
Kind regards,
Bill.
