Subject: RE: Yorkshire folk clubs 60's and 70's
Quite a few folk clubs in the Bradford area in this period.

Sunday- Bradford Folk Club at the Commercial, James Street, then at the Valley House, then the Washington, then Bradford Hotel,(Manningham Lane).Paul Tattersall,(known to all as Dad), ran this.
Tuesday-University Folk Club, (in the Staff Bar).
Thursday-MacMillan College Folk Club, (in the College)
Friday-Topic Folk Club,(then at the old Market Tavern)
Saturday-informal folk session at the Bank House, Pudsey.
I remember going to a Folk Club during the week at the Ferrands Arms in Bingley, I think Tony Capstick was involved with it, but it's a long time ago, and I can't remember which night.

Happy Days!
