Subject: RE: Best Folkies from out of Greater Manchester
Know what you mean Baggins. I was born at 2, Wellock St, Newton Heath, Manchester, Lancs, M10. (now a Sharpe's warehouse). Used to always (still do mostly) end our address labels as 'Manchester, Lancs.' even when moved to Middleton & Heywood, so there you go.

By the way do you remember a pub in Salford called the 'Two Brewers'(i think)? Sure i saw Ralph McTell, Dando Shaft and others perform there in (probably mid to late seventies)?? Then there was the Black Lion where Pete Farrow used to run some fab nights.
