Richard – I wouldn't have thought Tom & Barbara Brown's material was mostly Irish. Very English/Cornish to me. Get yourself down to Broadstairs and buy one of their albums. I'm sure they'll be only too glad to sell you one (Barbara's far too shy and retiring to plug them herself!)

You don't have to go to the Nationals (sound like a sporting event) to hear Marion Button – most months she's at the 8 Bells in Tenterden (2nd Tues) and most singers nights at Faversham. She's got a CD out too (Button Box).

I'll stop now - I'm beginning to sound like an agent.
