Subject: RE: The first song you performed in public?
yes indeed I can. It was a song I learned from Iam cambell Folk Group in Birmingham, Rocorded on their debut album, featuring the late John Dunkerly on banjo and Vocals and Dave Swarbrick on fiddle. It was called The Dtovers Dream, I performed it Acapella and still do as I've never found chords for, can anyone help there? It begins

I was travelin with me sheep
Me mates all fast asleep
No moon or stars were shining in the sky
I was dozin I suppose, and me eyes had hardly clothes
When a very strange procession passed me by

Always gets a good reception. I remember I was terrified by the way! ;)
