Wheaton Aston has significance for anyone who has been following the folk scene in the midlands for a lot of years. There are certain locations which just resound.

The Three Barrels - Tony Savage's club in Barwell.
Taff Thomas's in Coseley.
The Old Crown Digbeth.
The Boggery , Solihull.
The Beggar's Bush Sutton Cpldfield.
The Harvester, Sutton Coldfield.
and many more

Long after the clubs have gone and the great acts that played them have died and retired through old age, these places have a special place in our hearts. They are what we did when our parents and many our contemporaries watched Val Doonican and Rolf Harris in suspended animation.

Wheaton Aston was one of those places.
