Jeff and Barbara stayed at our house last year - they did a floor spot while checking out our dear friends Gypsy Reel, Claudette Langille's Vermont-based band. We know Jeff through seeing and hearing him at numerous festivals - if you're anywhere near the Windsor Hotel, Pontyclun, on Wednesday May 16, Jeff deserves to be heard. He's a one-man storehouse of American traditional knowledge.

Incidentally, The Windsor is under new management now, and the Abbot Ale is vastly improving!
