The other day I was trying to remember the words of a song by Vera Johnson; searching the net I picked up this thread.
Vera was one of the people I remember at an early folk festival in Keele Uni in the 1960s; the protest she was engaged in at the time (mentioned above as a message pinned to her clothes) was -- I think -- a hunger strike for Biafra. She hadn't eaten for some time and obviously looked bad, but she still insisted on singing. A very strong, committed woman.

I saw her at folk clubs round the north-west, she was a great entertainer and musician and there were a couple of songs I really liked, one was Homer Johnson -- about her father? -- and a love song, which was the one I was trying to recall, about England and the soft rain, with a chorus beginning 'Tell my love that someday I'll be with him/ her, Where the hills are ?low and misty green...' I know the tune; anyone know where the words are? I had one of her LPs, but someone half-inched it years back...
