Subject: RE: folksingers who quit,and why?
I said you COULD start a thread like this - I didn't say it was a great idea.

Personally I often wonder about the people in the Ian Campbell folk Group - Ian, Lorna, Brian Clark, Colin Tommis (I know Aiden Ford and John have gone.)

Talking of John what about his partner in a duo - Geoff Bodenham.

Steve Adams from Tamworth and Andy Dwyer.

Marc Sullivan - American guy who toured England in the 1960's and palled around with Pete Quin for a while.

What about that geezer who was in Mr Fox and wrote songs of huge length?

Pete Castle, I seem to run into like every ten years or so. Usually (like me) propping up some lunatic musical enterprise. (Yeh, go on Uncle Al tell us the one about the avant gard playwright who wanted to write a play about Derby in the blitz accompanied all the way through by musicians improvising in 15/17 time!)

McNulty out of Peabody and McNulty......
