I can, I guess understand people only just finding out about Tom Lewis, who I first met at Mariposa in about 1987 and is a nice guy, although I did not get a chance to talk to him at Millrace.
I do hope that you have not only just found out about the Millrace Folk Festival, it is probably THE best trditional music festival in Ontario. I have many of their volunteer tee shirts in my closet.
Johnny Collins had a Folk Club in Hong Kong, where Tom Lewis sang, when they were both still in the service, way back.
Tom, like his hero Cyril Tawney, spent (I think) 25 years in the Navy, with 17 of that in Submarines.
