Subject: RE: Canny Fettle
I played with Canny Fettle in the mid seventies, They were residents at various clubs run by Harry Boardman in the Manchester area. Although I was not a regular member of the band, I used to stand in for Gerry Murphy, who played concertina and smallpipes, when the band played for ceilidhs. The line up was Bob Diehl, Steve Turner, Gerry, and Bob Morton. Incidentally, Gerry won the Alnwick gathering in 1976. I was there.
