Subject: RE: 1960's Australian Folk Albums
Martyn, perhaps you can help date an album I have called 'Australian Folk Night', on W&G, produced by (and featuring) Denis Gibbons, with yourself and the bush band, the Moonbeam, the Lumsden, and Doug Owen, Peter Laycock and Lenore Somerset. I've searched my old Tradition mags and found mention of another Melb. T.H. concert, mid-late '65, sponsored by Frank Traynor (which was my first ever folk concert), where you and several other usual suspects perform ( also young Jeannie Lewis and Kevin Butcher who passed on recently) SO, the concert on vinyl feels like it's earlier...

Bob,the centrefold (la la) of the March 1966 Tradition has a series of photos from a 'Songs of Peace and Love' concert (Nov. '65). Some frighteningly young looking folkies, including the beautiful Mss. Thomasetti and Lawton....

Murray in the shaky isles..bloody gooooooday to you.
That's a very low blow to the sedimental memory bone you, you...
Yeah, you're right, neither the Doc or meself have been back to Aotae for hmmmm 30 years!! I see him every so often, still playing and singing. Good to hear that the chuckleberry kicks on too.. please give him a g'day from me when you see him next.

keep dem toes and fingers tappin'    regards Branno
