Way back in 1962-63, when I was in college, one of my roommates spent her junior year abroad in England at the University of Leeds. One of the things she brought back with her was a record album by Steve Benbow, titled "Admiral Benbow." GREAT album! I must have learned at least a half-dozen songs from it -- an astonishing (for me, at least) number from a single album. I still sing 3 or 4 of them regularly.

But the only copy of the album I have is a cassette dubbed about 15 years ago from the reel-to-reel tape I made in 1963 with the mike from my Wollensak pointed at the record player. Not ideal, to say the least. I'd be interested to know if "Admiral Benbow" is still available, in any format.

I'd also be interested in knowing more about Steve Benbow. I don't even have whatever info was on Mary's album cover. Is Benbow still around? Are there other recordings?

Thanks! Nancy
