It is many years since I first and last saw Bob and he was certainly an inspiration fo unaccompanied singers, and male singers at that for the "revival" other inspirations were Sean Cannon, Martin Whyndham Read, Nic Jones, Tony Rose and Dave Burland

Bob however was virtually all unaccompanied in those days although I believe he plays concertina too.

I got to the Grove on Sunday pm missed him

Maybe I will aspire to folk greatness and English LIving Tradition Standard Bearer eventually, like Bob
