he did write too, and very east Endish
His joke telling is an art form
You can be listening to his song then recall the joke and collapse on the floor
he is the salt of the earth
Noone cannot know of him on the U K scene, he is a legend.
he was a role model for many budding performers during the early 70s
His book reads as he speaks, with that charming cockey accent.

Recently heard to perform Les Barker's 'Will The Turtle be Unbroken'

one of the best exponents of frayling banjo style too
