i don’t know if you’re still interested, but i actually do know what happened to the haverim boys (well one of them) - martin shoben is my grandad. if anyone has any old videos of his performances i’d be eternally grateful - i’m looking for one for his 85th birthday…he recently found a copy of a gig he did in ‘63 and was so happy so i’m looking for another if anyoen has any information?

I haven`t any recordings but I do remember we booked The Haverim at "The Railway Tavern", Catford, SE London circa 1965/6.

Sorry to report but RoyH (Burl) Roy Harris died in 2016.
The Haverim are featured on the complete series of Hullabaloo DVD which was released a couple of years ago.

Here is the link to the song Jay and I wrote in 1963 called "Price Of Freedeom" (Copyright Peermusic 1964). The description to the YouTube video includes the credits and lyrics:

Has the late Jackie Washington from Hamilton, Ontario been mentioned? My first guitar hero in the early sixties.
I saw Tex Koenig mentioned for his appetite as well as his performing. I recall one guy who could out eat Tex, and that was a skinny lttle guy with a rich baritone voice and super guitar skills named Mose Scarlett.
Mose hung out with Leon Redbone when Leon lived in Toronto and they shared much of their repertoire. I think Leon went by "Sonny" in those days.
Leon and Mose died on the same day.
