Notes

Musically it is pretty weak...unfortunately choosing to focus on the weaknesses of the current line-up (no lead guitar, no real sense of the fundamentals of 'folk-rock' that they after all invented..Peggy and Simon on auto-cruise) rather than their strengths. They've been coasting far too long - let's hope the 40th anniversary in 2007 is a rebirth of sorts, or at the very least a chance to hear the old stuff done properly one more time
