A couple of weeks ago I tracked down, online, two members of a late-1960s trio called The Lonesome Travellers, Graham Cooper and Steve Rostron (and yes, the third member was the late Doug Porter).
In 1971 a College friend had their LP, which had "Slightly Faded" on it, plus beautiful versions of Gordon Lightfoot's "Early Morning Rain" and "Canadian Railroad Trilogy", and the story of a Crimean War hero, "The Ballad of William Coffey VC". I'd copied the LP (via speaker & mic) to reel-to-reel, and from that (via speaker & mic) to cassette, and the 30+ year-old cassette of incredibly muddy music is now disintegrating. Through the kindness of Graham and Steve I may get a replacement before long.
If David Campbell is still around anywhere, could someone thank him from me for writing a hauntingly beautiful song. And thankyou, Kernow John, for giving the lyrics here.
