In reply to a recent letter on his Soapbox, Brian has said:
"I can assure you I don't need any more fame, or money, or approbation. Why then, would the word 'hypocrite' be appropriate?'
Surely the appropriate response to this would be: "if you don't want to be called a hypocrite, don't say you don't need any more money or fame and then continue to keep churning out all the greatest hits and other compilations and reissues"!!!
