I've just read through this thread from top to bottom, and I confess I find it a bit sad. For one thing, my dear friends Paul MacNeil, Redd Sullivan, Alex Campbell, Martin Winsor, and Rick Fielding are all gone. For another, though I played many clubs in England and Scotland in 1964 and 65, the only ones I remember by name are The Troubadour, The Enterprise, The Roundhouse - and The Student Prince, Curly Goss' venue in Soho before his New Zealand days. I do remember a lovely evening at St. Pancras Town Hall, where I shared a bill with Paul MacNeil and Tom Paxton, and I could never forget the Sheffield Teacher Training College. I played there often and made lots of friends. There was a nice room in Watford, and an atmospheric pub in St. Alban's - with names I thought I would remember forever .... Does anyone know where Anthea Joseph is now? Anyway, I raised three boys and then returned to performing in 2001, the year this thread began. Soon after the release of my first CD, I stopped calling myself Joanne Hindley-Smith, preferring to use my married name of Crabtree. In 2006, I teamed up with ace picker Paul Mills and we've been raising Cain as Crabtree&Mills ever since. Here is our latest project, videos of two songs I wrote in 2009. (Did I mention I'm married to an American?) I'd be grateful if someone would blue clickify them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyX3NhDoWN4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i-TRnlAkjM Jock, might we have met? Joanne (Hindley-Smith) Crabtree
