Ian Passey aka The Humdrum Express
Just wanted to say thanks for all the positive feedback I've received since the session. All very much appreciated! In answer to Derek's question my top lyricists would have to be Morrissey, Strummer, early Weller, Billy Bragg etc. I'm also a huge fan of word wizards such as Ronnie Barker and Ivor Cutler.

Derek
Lyrics are great and witty. Who does he most admire lyrically?

Neil
Humdrum Express sounds brilliant!! Lets have some more! Forget the Rugby

Cath, London
