I remember all 3, but I don't think I ever saw them together. Diz Dizley was probably the best known.

Pat Nelson was the first person I heard sing "Streets of London", which I thought was a great song when I heard him do it. He was a pretty good guitarist (played a Gibson then, from what I can remember). I don't particularly remember him as a 'funny man' though - I thought he was more in the 'serious' vein. This would be about 1969-70.

I played several gigs with Jon Isherwood in Hants - I was a resident at four different folk clubs in Hants and he was a frequent guest at them all.

He was always a laugh and I considered him to be in the same vein as Frew Wedlock, Mike Harding, Billy Connolly, etc., i.e. a 'folk comedian'. Sadly he never had as much success as any of that lot.

I didn't know he and Pat were no longer with us and I'm sorry to hear that. But I have happy memories, especially of Jon!

Does anyone remember a bloke called 'Mister' Chris Shaw, who also used to play those Hants clubs in those days? He was another singer/guitarist. For some reason I thought of him the other day, and this thread reminded me of him.
