To give you an update on things - I have been in contact with several people who are willing to contribute including Roy Palmer (folk historian and family friend), Baz Barker (one time music editor for Radio Manchester and Chris Cole (member of Gorton Tank) along with anyone on this thread who has offered their services as it were, and we shall be getting around to contacting them again after next Monday. "Why next Monday" do I hear you ask?
On Monday 14th May Ali O'Brien is running a programme of Sounds of Folk on Oldham Community Radio exclusively about Harry and will be a bit of a precursor for the Radio Britfolk programme. Involved in the show will be John Howarth and Gerry Kearns of the Oldham Tinkers, Chris Harvey and myself, we will be playing tracks mainly by Harry but also the Tinkers, Brian Peters, and Chris and me as examples of people who were influenced by Harry's work. I'm sure there are other people's tracks we could play but lack of time is the problem.

OCR has a listen live facility on the internet and can be found here: OCR

The programme goes out at 7-03pm after the news until 8-00pm


Cheers
Mark
