No, I was unaware. I totally agree with the sentiment of not reading any more 'newspapers' from Dave Robinson though!
With a couple of possible exceptions, I'd be willing to bet that no-one here was aware of the bomb that Hank dropped regarding his health. Hank doesn't strike me as the sort of person who generally talks about such things. I certainly had heard no whisper about it and I know people who are closer to Hank than you might think. It was a revelation, as far as I was concerned. Just shocked, but also pleased to hear that all seems to be well. I'd be interested to know about these 'inaccuracies', as nothing leapt out at me as being particularly inaccurate. I was surprised, however, by the way Bruce talked about 'We Don't Talk Anymore', as he made no mention of Alan Tarney.
Anyway, it was a (generally) nice surprise and I had no idea that it was also available online. I wonder where the incentive came from as I wouldn't have expected news coverage of the release of the album. Good to see The Shads still getting column inches in the national press. It can do no harm.
