GUEST,Sheila Guilford 2019 Obit: Angie Bladen R I P (28) RE: 2019 Obit: Angie Bladen R I P 25 Nov 19


So sad to hear of the passing of Angie who was a good friend to me when I was merely a teenager. I met Angie in 1969 when we were hanging around the London folk clubs at that time. We shared a flat in Muswell Hill in 1970/71 when Angie started up the Capricorn folk club at The Albany, Gt Portland Street. We had some brilliant Friday evenings there all booked by Angie while I was mainly the door person. I wish I could remember what we charged - I know it wasn't much. We used to perform a couple of numbers at the start of the evening and again to kick off after the break. She was the excellent singer while I plinky plonked a few guitar chords as accompaniment in our short lived duo, Touchwood. Angie also played the organ at my wedding in 1972, a highlight of which was "Oh how I rue the day 'ere I was married".
I lost touch with Angie and Ken when they moved North and I was busy raising a family, although I tried to keep abreast of what she was up to and was sad that I never made it to the Four Fools festival.
My condolences to Ken who has been by Angie's side for so many years.
