I’d heard of Coleridge. Victorian poet and friend of Mary Shelley and Lord Byron. He wrote The Rime of the Ancient Mariner which Iron Maiden covered some years later.
Iron Maiden might be a bit surprised to hear that.
Oooooooops.
Now I look like a silly billy.
I may have thought “Coleridge was black?” and then Googled it to find out. If you are going to get anyone confused it’s probably be Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor.
