I was thinking about this yesterday.  Even when someone else is singing,
Horton is playing the melody or something subtle in the background.  It adds
a lot to his pieces I think.

P.S.  The country is called "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern
Ireland".  When a form asks where I was born I write "United Kingdom" but
then what am I supposed to write for nationality?  I usually write "British"
although it seems inconsistent with the name of the country.  "English" and
"England" are often misused - they exclude people from Wales, Scotland and
Northern Ireland.  There are several other islands that fit in there somewhere.
I'm not sure whether the Channel Islands, The Isle of Man, Falklands (Malvinas)
etc are part of the UK or GB or what.  BTW it's great to have an international
harp list like this.
