So sorry to hear sad news.

I'd met Barry just briefly this year at the Bull Bay fest in Anglesey, North Wales, when he was staying in uk with Andrew [Crane Driver] & enjoyed his fine renditions of shanties & trad British songs.

He was a little miffed with the large quantity of American material being performed by others, & I recall him remarking something like 'I've come all the way to Britain from the 'states & you're all doing American songs!!'

However, he did hear some British stuff from us as well.

I'm very glad he was able to make it over here & experience a good time on his holiday, travelling all over.

Guess he's now on another plane, entertaining folk in the afterlife!!
