I was a big big fan of folk when i was a kid, mostly coz it was the only stuff my dad listened to that wasn't total shit.

anywayz, ol cat converted to islam in the 70s and from then on allah refused him permission to play heathen tunes.

saw a great doco with him last night, and apparently his belief or understanding in islam has changed, and now he thinks it is ok to make music again

never quite reaching the emotional harmonies of simon and garfunkel (at least, not for me) but he has such a nice, soothing voice and pleasant melodies. the stuff he was playing last night was really cool.

COR version: islam is shit, but less shit now.

Interesting news though, I wonder what sort of stuff he'll write now. Some of his old stuff is great.

the stuff i heard him playing last night sounded like he'd just picked up where he left off (at least musically, im sure the lyrics have prob changed).

Your posts are much funnier since taking on your current avatar, as I can picture him shouting all of your posts.

I used to be quite the fan when I was younger as well. I'm interested in hearing new material.

His Magik Suite or whatever was awesome.
