• Saddened by Roy Bailey’s death (Obituary, 22 November), I played songs from Freedom Peacefully on our scratchy old LP. His warm, caring voice could have been singing about right now. Where are the political folksingers for today? We need them.

The suggestion that, at the age of 80, Sir Ian does an encore tour of any length would involve him working even further past the age by which most people would have retired.
