Is it his or yours?
John seemed to be climbing more tentatively than he probably did 40 years ago on that pitch, as I suspect he would have simply climbed over a lot of that choss back then instead of cleaning it off.
Any more footage from that climb?

There is nothing in that video that inspires me to do want to get on Jorrmangund. Even by Ewbank's standards that climb looked utterly shit.
As for the song... well I don't mind it. Sure beats a lot of boring, uninspired, unoriginal music filling the airwaves currently.

Simey, you were inspired enough on Titan - didn't you and Steve do the first free ascent the day after MarkSav & I did the last aid ascent... It's not far away.
And I don't mind John's music either - maybe it's a live thing. I remember a gig at the Clarendon in Katoomba where he went off - although he did get Ad up to sing something...
