I used to hear the Songwainers every Sunday night in the Victory Club, for three years or so in the seventies. I was fifteen when I started going (the Charlton Kings Youth Club went to hear Nic Jones. Wonderful). And the Songwainers were wonderful too. I was much to shy and over-awed to sing. I haven't read all the above thred, but there is some-one who doesn't like Ken Langsbury. Well I couldn't disagree more. I always thought him a tremendous comic and singer, full of life. What was his song about the dragon? And there were all those monologues...Great stuff.
