Subject: RE: Folk Clubs London 1960s & 70s
In the mid sixties, I used to attend Grotty Lottie's Corner Folk Club, at Dalston Junction. Dave Lipscomb ran it. He had a brother who went to Israel for the 6 day war. We met once a week and it was good fun. Lots of drink and plenty of folk singing. I still remember Dave's signature tunes and, after, over 50 years I still sing them to myself. This club was good fun and Dave was a good host with a good repertoire. Some very good guest singers.
I miss those days, am still in touch with others who joined in.
Good days, gone by, never to be re-found.
