SIR CLIFF RICHARD has slammed music critics who fail to recognise the major part he has played in shaping the history of rock 'n' roll. The veteran pop star - who has enjoyed a career spanning over five decades - has lashed out at the music writers who ignore the massive impact he's had on the music industry, simply because he's not universally liked. He says, "My only gripe is when critics writing the history of rock 'n' roll leave me out all together. They're doing history a disservice. "You can't write about Kings and Queens and leave them out because you didn't like them. But I'm not going to commit suicide over it. The public know what I've done."

I agree wholeheartedly with both comments. The content of your last few items are just making Cliff seem like "a grumpy old man" who keeps moaning about anything and everything and feeling sorry for himself. It's about time you published something positive about this great man and found some more recent photos of him!!!
