GUEST,Desred	Obit: Ian Campbell, Birmingham (67* d)	RE: Obit: Ian Campbell, Birmingham	26 Nov 12
So very sad to hear the news that a great folk singer has passed away. Over the last few years, after he had returned to Brum, we've had the privilege of sitting with Ian from time to time in local song sessions in Kings Heath, Birmingham, when he would come along with his son, David. He liked nothing better than hearing some of his own songs sung and no doubt we will be singing some more when we meet up next week. Like so many others in Birmingham, we loved going to the Jug O'Punch club in Digbeth back in the late 60's/early 70's and having a great night with the Ian Campbell Folk Group. We were lucky to see him in his final live appearance at the Moseley Folk Festival a few years ago and could hear his mum, Betty, singing along at the back of the stage. Memories flood back - thanks Ian and keep singing and chuckling up there! Des & Margaret
