Abstract
The title of this blog, ‘Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right’, comes from lyrics in Stealers Wheel’s 1973 hit single, Stuck in the Middle with You. Written by late Scottish Singer Gerry Rafferty (1947-2011), the song is based on his experience of meeting music executives and obsequious ‘hangers on’ in London who he considered interested only in maximising profit.
Music, unsurprisingly, like any business, is about making money.
