RE: [prefabsprout] RE: paddy cont..

Jamie -- glad to see some chatter about Paddy. I often wrestle with
these thoughts:

1) Should we be satisfied that Paddy has put out great music over the
years -- and just be grateful for that? Many great artists put out only
one album, and many more meet an untimely demise.

2) On the other hand, can we expect, or do anything to facilitate, more
music from Paddy? (I know only Paddy can answer that one.)

I loved the acoustic versions on the Steve McQueen remaster. I'd also
love to see Paddy support the album by playing small clubs with his
acoustic guitar, but know that will probably never happen.

The question remains: So what now?

- JD

Hi Jamie Nice post. The problem paddy seems to have over the past ten years, maybe longer, is this need to compile an album rather than record it. He always...
