Thanks for the info.Yes, I thought he has a good voice and rather liked his guitar playing. I often think he was ahead of his time, too early for skiffle! I'm 63 now, and remember him well on radio programmes and was intrigued by his songs. The only other folk music available at that time was the 'As I roved out series', and the American centred 'Big Bill Campbell'programmes which occasionally featured songs that were (at heart) traditional folk. I never understood why I liked such music, I just knew I did!
