Here's a song to celebrate the decision not to sue:

When those laudatory reviews started pouring one after another, I almost immediately lost interest (in the sense that I just didn't believe them). It never occurred to me that the object of the reviews was a ghost. I just figured that the critics were crassly serving some commercial interests.

Exactly the same here. I found it highly unlikely that any pianist would excel in such a wide array of composers. Plus the exclusive "Britishness" of this musical "discovery" - if no French or German reviewer joins the chorus, I'm always suspicious... 8)

Here's a link to an NPR interview with Mark Singer, the fellow who wrote the recent article in The New Yorker about the Hatto affair: http://www.onthemedia.org/episodes/2007/09/21/segments/85922

Have any of the bamboozled received any refunds from "Barry" yet?
