> How could I forget Springsteen and Fagan, of course! Fagan as in Donald? Oh yes, which reminds of the other lyricist who definitely deserves a mention here -- Elvis Costello...(did someone mention Roger Waters? Oh I am sure they did) But, but, but, I can almost already hear poor Tim wondering whatever happened to the ObSalinger reference, so I think I would just say Blue Melody, which opens quite a large barn door to launch a discussion on who the blues singer was and then to start discussing our favourites...;-) I would say T. Bone Walker but then we are in Muddy Waters already... Sonny
