Thread Name: I really enjoyed that Folk Club because.
Subject: RE: I really enjoyed that Folk Club because.
For me it was the Jug o' Punch in August 1967. We were on a work camp at MAC and one of the guys said "I usually go to a Folk CLub on a Thursday". "What's a Folk Club" we said - "Come and have a look". The rest, as they say, is history.

One of the guys playing was John Dunkerley (what did he die of?) who was the son of one of our parishioners in Doncaster. I think Harvey Andrews was on one of the first times I went, and a couple of years later I went back with my wife, and she did a couple of numbers in the floor spot. Funnnily enough BBC Radio Birmingham were recording that night, so it was her first broadcast.

Ah, those were the days.
