Rusty Dobro | 2024 Obit: Suffolk singer Eric Baker (3) | RE: 2024 Obit: Suffolk singer Eric Baker | 15 Apr 24 |
Such sad news about Eric, a stalwart of the Suffolk pub scene for so long. We will miss his traditional songs, such as ‘The Nutting Girl’ and ‘Bungay Roger’, his frequent companion Morris, the jig doll, and his playing on the bowed psaltery, but most of all, we’ll miss him. I’ve paid my own tribute by performing the tune he wrote for the 17thC poem ‘The Battle of Sole Bay’. |
