Thread Name: Review: Gordon Bok on Tour
Subject: RE: Review: Gordon Bok on Tour
He and his wife captivated the Bodmin Folk club last Friday

The voice was sublime and the Paraguayan harp playing was moving

Their offering of Malvina Reynold's song 'Quiet' was very much appreciated. i had not previously heard it. beautifully sung.

We who were present were absolutely captivated and wish them well


Three days earlier Gordon was also seen playing out on Padstow harbour where he rendered 'Maggie in the Wood' and was almost nicked by a patrolling bobby, no thanks to one Mike O'Connor the likes of whom you should never trust.

Oh and Martyn Wyndham-Read had some thing to do with it and I believe it was Danni's birthday treat, from him.

I felt it had been a magical moment to have met and heard Gordon Bok sing and play. a gentleman of music.
