To enlighten everyone further. This is how I came to connect with Jackie. Barry Lister (of Claque notoriety) Mentioned to Mr Mick Burch (Local musician, staunch supporter of the Topsham folk club and founder of the Barnfield open mic nights and owner of the property where our own 'Riverside' studio is located) that a young musician called Jackie needed to record some songs on a very limited budget. Barry and Mick are people whose judgements I have a profound respect for and I said yes. Jackie turned up and within ten minutes, I knew I was listening to something utterly compelling, the like of which I had not encountered for a very long time. At the end of the session, I told her to keep her hard earned cash and we continued (over a lengthy period whenever I had time) to develop these recordings until we had the first album in the bag. Its as simple as that. Its great to think that Barry can still exert that influence even after all these years. (Tips forelock reverently)
