Thread Name: Peter Bond songwriter
Subject: RE: PeterBond songwriter
I did a couple of floor spots when Peter played in the Birmingham area in the late 70s or early 80s. He was a great performer and someone who gave me encouragement. As a songwriter I think he is up with the very best I have seen playing on the folk circuit. I don't have any of his recordings but still remember sections of several of his songs even though I have not heard anyone sing them since, with the exception of Joe Peel. What a song that one is but I also really liked Ne Coals Off which is, in my view, one of the best "new" songs about World War one.
