A group of folkies on a cultural expedition from Reading dropped into my Dad's pub, The Waterloo at Cholsey, one night back in the mid seventies and asked if they could play. They swapped instruments, sang harmonies and filled the room with good music and good company. Later on they founded the Downs and Outs folk club, which in its short career booked Downes and Beer, 1812, Stan Arnold, Wild Oats, Peabody/McNalty, Johnny Coppin, Bill Boazman, Steve Ashley, Johhny Silvo, David Qualey, Dave and Toni Arthur, Alan Taylor, Fiddlers Dram, Bully Wee and a few other quite useful players. Now, can you give me one good reason for not getting into the music?
