It's amazing the stuff I learn here. Is Eric Bogle still alive? I don't know that I have actually seen anything of his on disc here> I would be interested in hearing his treatment for both "The band Played Waltzing Matilda" and "The Green Fields of France" Kindest regards, Neil "

yeah he is still alive....and writing and singing...and recording..and touring... "

Eric Bogle came to Waikerie this year' and performed with my Vocal Teacher's folk group, East Wind. He's a really nice guy, so's John Munroe. At the performance I picked yo a copy of "At The Stage" and they both signed it ... and I tell you what, Bogle really IS short; he's shorter than me!
