color=#0000ff>Barbara the Foghorn? I'm insulted on her behalf. I happen to
adore most of her recordings, even her Classical music. Everyone has a
certain timbre to the voice and hers has served her quite well through a long
and fulfilled career. She does not have the vocal chords of an Operatic
singer but that does not make her a foghorn. Ethel Merman certainly
sounded like a blaring foghorn but at the time it was acceptable because it was
matched to her thousand watt stage persona.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Speaking of strange tastes in singers apart from Barbara The Foghorn,
do we have any recorded reactions from Pet Clarke ? Also utterly
insignificant, but I reckon it must have been flattering for both of them to be
mentioned by one of the greatest musicians in our time, even one had only been
used for a satirical piece.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I am sure Mrs Quicksand has written an autobiography but it will rather
snow in hell before I read that and pity all the trees in BC that had to be
felled for that nonsense.<BR>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Personal tastes are different, but praising Barbara The Forghorn went just
too far. Then again GG had a particular and unique taste, not just in
music</DIV>
