Hi All!
Contrary to popular opinion, I haven't gone into hibernation in fact
I've been back working on the website. If you get the mailing list
Newsletter you will already know that another website update is in
progress, an attempt to check all links and update information, for
now concentrating on the Song Info section and related Who's Who
links. It's also been the inspiration for a whole new feature Sounds
Like...... which lists other versions of songs from Peter's recording
career, along with alternative songs with the same title and lots of
links - links to other artists' information, lyrics pages and sound
clips, so you can compare some of them for yourselves. It's still in
it's early stages though, I have only covered the songs beginning with
A and B so far. I'd like to make it a truly comprehensive listing,
but since I have found around 400 references to different recordings
of 'Blowin in the Wind', alone, I've decided to move on to other songs
for now and come back to certain titles later. If you know of any
versions of any of the songs you want me to include, please do pass on
the details.
Would anybody like to start the ball rolling here with their favourite
or least-liked versions (by anybody) of Peter Doyle/Grandma's
Tonic/Virgil Brothers/New Seekers?
There is a new e-mail address for website messages. Sadly, like so
many others, the Peter Doyle Website e-mail address has been a target
for junk mail and the spam filter is having a hard job sorting the
genuine messages from the rubbish and so I have created what I hope
will be a safer system with a new address. I won't tempt
address-crawlers by publishing the new address on the message board
but the old one will be kept open for a while and you can always go to
the website and follow the "contact me" links if in doubt.
In the meantime....... Happy Easter!
Gwyneth
