Oh, this is new. It is a life story. Saw them live a couple of weeks ago. It was emotional.

Story songs - yes, one of my favourite genres, and some of the top songs ever written. But cheesy - no way!

Definitely, think Richard Thompson did 1952 Vincent Black Lightning live when I saw him at Crawley a while back, hope he does it when I see him play the De La Warr Pavillion in a couple of months. God like guitar genius is understating, even Bob Dylan has covered it and there is a girl bluegrass band named after one of the song's characters - "Red Molly" - who do a superb cover. Not sure if "Galway to Graceland" is your the list as well - another totally cheese free story song?
