Thread Name: Lyr Req: Wroxham Broads (Allan Smethurst)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Wroxham broads by Alan Smethurst
What a star you are. I have now acquired an old vinyl titled 'Sound Barrier' on which Alan sings Wroxam Broads. To me a superbly constructed song.
Wroxham Broad is indeed an area of wetland to the west of Gt Yarmouth, a superb area of natural beauty and very popular with holiday makers. Go there if you can.
Alan Smethurst ( the singing postman ) deserves more recognition than he has at present. Some say his songs are twee but have a listen and make your own judgement.
I will search your other links to see what they have in store.

Many thanks.
