Thread Name: 2006 Obit: Frank McCall, Liverpool singer
Subject: RE: Obit: Frank McCall, RIP (Aug 2006)
I was a co-resident of the Magazine Folk Club with both Frank and Helen McCall in the 80's and 90's. He was unique. I never heard him say a cruel word about anyone and his sense of humour was both gentle and astute. He was a great pleasure to work with and a privelege to know. After a rousing chorus number he would often say "Well sung club!" I was at his memorial service yesterday and I hope he would be saying"Well sung church!" My thoughts and prayers are with Helen and Kathryn at this time. I will stop now as Frank would be the last person to approve of cliches! Pat (and Ranting Sleazos!)
