Tony Rees Diz Disley retrospective (25) Diz Disley retrospective 14 Mar 16


Hi Mudcatters,

I was looking through Wikipedia and noticed that the biographical entry for Diz Disley was a bit sub-optimal (also no photo added in the past 9 years since one was deleted for not being public domain) so I have done a bit of a re-write, added/extended the discography, uploaded one of my own photos and would be very happy for folks to check it out here if interested:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diz_Disley

I would be very happy to receive corrections, additions, comments as appropriate from those who may have encountered Diz in his folk club days or other. (I know there was a separate thread in the "Obituary" list but I thought a new one would be appropriate now).

Although I now live in Australia I have very happy memories of seeing Diz' folk club act in the UK in the 1970s and 80s and I have tried my best in the Wikipedia article to describe his guitar style, which I can only remember as pretty staggering to encounter for the first time if you are used to 3- and 4- chord folk songs!
