Captain Birdseye
if you havent heard of John Lyons and Len Graham,youhave missed two very fine traditional singers
I don't doubt it for a moment but, as I said, we generally only book from personal experience and if these chaps haven't turned up at any of the clubs we regularly attend or any of the festivals we do, then we just won't have come across them. We decidedly do not book on the basis of recordings.
It is gradually emerging to me that Jim Carroll is someone of value. Shall we say that he didn't exactly present himself in an endearing way to start with by being extremely judgemental on the basis of very little evidence.
By the way, I don't run the club we are a large committee.
