I can remember a conversation which I had with Bert while driving him back from St Albans Folk Club many years ago. He claimed that the UK "Folk Revival" of the 60s/70s, was actually contrived by a group of people (which included him) and was not a spontaneous happening. I forget who all the other names were, but I must admit he put a very solid case for it being the truth.

Perhaps there should be a blue plaque on a certain house in Crooms Hill, Greenwich.
