This review was published in today's Independent . -- PLAGUE SONGS BARBICAN HALL SUNDAY 28TH OCTOBER VARIOUS ARTISTS **** If the only plague song you knew was ‘Ring around the Rosies', you would have had a surprising evening.

Those tunes were performed live in various permutations around the small seaside town of Margate, England, and released . Seems the sickness has held on for another round: a few survivors of the...
