GUEST,Dave sutton. Berlin. ALTAN, Pat Cooksey, Concert. (7) RE: ALTAN, Pat Cooksey, Concert. 30 Jul 05

I had the honour of drinking and talking with Pat in Hannover
tonight, Pat tells me he sang for 15 years in the English folk clubs
when he was younger but was allways snubbed by the tradionals.
When I look up his songs now on google, seems Pat's songs are very
well known and popular in England.
I hear on the one hand of the decline of folk music in England, but have seen at first hand how popular Pat is in Ireland and in Europe.
Pat told me he dos not play in England, quite simply because nobody
has asked him, your loss.
