Subject: RE: Liverpool Folk Club 1970
Christ--I remember a good chunk of the names here--I was sad to here about Frank MCCall and John Davis--both where princes of men, Frank was an excellent singer who really did not appreciate how good he was, John was a fine bloke who I NEVER saw in a mood--always had a good word ..and discustingly good looking.

Memeory isa bit poor but Im sure I last saw John at Alan Langleys 60th??? in Anglesea (may have been 50th), Ive went to Mary's reunion up in the north east, and another in Wavertree

I keep in touch with Silkie and Fergie but I aint seen them for about 4-5 years.

I still see Willy Russell and just went to his daugters wedding in italy last may--Saw andy seagroat there --he hasnt changed a bit.

Does anyone remeber Davey Johnston from Tich and Dave? He plays with Elton John, he keeps in touch and we see him when he tours near here (last one was cancelled)

Seems like yesterday in the Moose, the Vic and the Mitre--Id forgoton about the Bamboo room---I bet in reality those places were real sheds

Good luck and good wishes to anyone I knew back then and I wish absent friends well
