I was heavily involved in Uxbridge Folk Club after my return from the Aden fiasco in 1967 , and found the club was running regular Ceilidhs
as well as the weekly song club . There was so much Irish influence in
the 'song' scene that using the Gaelic seemed perfectly natural .

Incidentally , there was always a schism twixt Dance and Song
during the mid sixties , mostly from Dance ,as song clubs seemed happy to have dances , but dancers didn't want to acknowledge song .
