greg stephens Folklore: UK TV - the Day Kennedy died (15) RE: Folklore: UK TV - the Day Kennedy died 25 Nov 13


I have a folkie memory of the Saturday night (the day after the assassination). I was involved in the Heritage Society at Oxford University, and we had a special party sing around arranged: a coach load of visitors coming from the Cambridge university folk club(called the St Lawrence Society). It was a strange evening with people singing right on songs mostly, as you would expect. Kevin McGrath (McGrath of Harlow here on Mudcat) had already written a song about the killing; as far as I can remember so had Mike Sutton (Mike from Northumbria on Mudcat). I had written one myself, but I did not perform it, Kevin having got his in first, and he was a great deal better at that sort of thing than I was!
