GUEST,Wendy Price Canadian folk icon Vera Johnson (122* d) RE: Canadian folk icon Vera Johnson 19 Aug 07


Wonderful to see Vera again when I was in Chemanais last month. Back in UK, I checked my song books and indeed have a copy of "The Vera Johnson Song Book No.1" published in 1974 by Zax Music, Langley, B.C., and has 31 of her songs in, including her most popular ones. Am I the only person who has this wonderful book and was there ever a "No.2"?

I read Art Thiemes note about my late husband, Bill Price who he saw in Chicago and Winnipeg in the early 70's, Never met you, but remember the name from those days. Incidentally, you might be interested to know that his daughters, Ruth Price and Sadie Greenwood, are keeping many of Bill's songs alive in clubs and festivals throughout the UK and are currently performing here at the Whitby Folk Festival where their dad used to sing. It's a great source of satisfaction to me that they are carrying on the tradition, which even young William, Bill's grandson, now participates in.
