To: Lupen Crook & The Murderbirds
From: MMH
Sirs,
A swift correspondence to extend my applause for your performance in Camden Town, Thursday. Although it is my opinion that the Barfly is a hell-bred privy-hole, where the ale is dearbought and the music stifled by poor architecture, I also fancy your most recent melodies are near auricular perfection, despite Mr Crook's influenza (a condition I hope swiftly releases its grip upon his auriferous throat harp).
Yours, MMH
