The first Folk Club I Joined was the Hermitage Zazz and Folk Song Club in Hitchin.Louis Killen ran the Folk club and the first Guest I saw there was Red Sullivan (of Troubadour fame)Up to that point I was a serious clarinet and sax man with a strong leaning towards Jonny Dodds and Sidney Bechet.I now play guitar and banjo and mandolin and still like to sit in at Jazz sessions on Whistle.
