Subject: RE: songs on life, times & assassination of JFK
M of Harlow you must have heard an hour or too before you went into the club, because I'm sure you had a new song ready. I remember it well, because I had one in my pocket too, but after I'd heard yours I didnt do mine. There were a lot of American folkies round , oxford was infested with them. Dave Laibman was there and sang "Set on freedom" I think.(still picking and Marxing in New York I believe). And when we all sang "We shall overcome" everybody stood up. A strange and sombre night.Funny, we'd all been protesting against Kennedy on the streets, must have been only a few months before.
Ah,the 60's.
