Subject: RE: Folk Clubs London 1960s & 70s
Sometimes the Thurlow arms in West Norwood would have a folk/blues night. I did a night there once. There was a guy called "Raggy Farmer" on as well. I left London in 1971..all those years ago....where has time gone? Anyone remember "Time out"? Me and my mate Pat were often listed (as Pat and Eric) in there in the late sixties. Wasn't it a great time to be young?(Rose coloured glasses?) So much good music going on. Very little violence, no-one had heard of "mugging". Then there was "The Cherry tre" in East Dulwich as well.
