Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: maeve Date: 31 Oct 12 - 10:00 AM Jack Hudson 'Driftwood and Nails' Jack Hudson cover - 'Across the Great Divide' |
Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: GUEST Date: 31 Oct 12 - 08:11 AM Mike, google him - there are several fairly recent vids of Jack at Loughborough. Notable are his version of Kate Wolf's 'Across The Great Divide' and his own song 'Driftwood and Nails'. Still the Maestro, despite advancing years and some pretty serious ill-health. Jack doesn't do many gigs nowadays, but he's still superb and well worth travelling to see. He did a gig last Winter with Russ Barenberg (Transatlantic Sessions regular) in Derbyshire, but the weather was foul and the snow stopped me driving there. |
Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: MikeL2 Date: 31 Oct 12 - 07:06 AM Hi I remember Jack well. Saw him several times. One time having imbibed more than sufficient I woke up in the morning with a vinyl LP called "Homecoming" .... I have no idea how I came to have it.. The cover shows Jack in a sheepskin jacket in a grotty yard. I still have it among my numerous vinyl folk stuff. I must try and get to see him sometime. I have laid off the booze so I might just remember if I buy anything!!! Cheers MikeL2 |

Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: Kernow John Date: 16 Jun 01 - 01:19 AM I have a copy of the LP on tape Bobby's Girl. If you PM me I'll get a copy to you. Didn't Jack play with Brian Willoughby (can't remember the spelling) for a while. Glad to hear he is still around. KJ |
Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 15 Jun 01 - 10:57 AM Thanks Banjo Ray and Bobby's Girl, you're dead right about the voice. My copy of 'Footlights & Headlights' went missing years ago. Shame I missed him at Donny, only a few miles away. Any more news about Jack out there - are you there Jack??? Speak to me !!!!!!

Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: bobby's girl Date: 14 Jun 01 - 08:10 PM I saw Jack several times in the seventies when I was at RAF Cosford, and he performed at the folk club there - he had the most wonderful deep voice, and my LP of him is one of my most treasured possessions, but as you can imagine its getting pretty worn out now. if anyone knows where I can get a CD I would be eternally grateful! |
Subject: RE: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: BanjoRay Date: 13 Jun 01 - 01:43 PM He did a floor spot in the Folk Club at the Railway Hotel in Doncaster on 5/6/01. He was there to see a performance by Debby McClatchy, a friend of his (and mine). He's got a superb voice and style. He lives in Derby, I believe, but I don't know where. Cheers |
Subject: Anyone know what happened to Jack Hudson From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 13 Jun 01 - 10:49 AM Jack played The Bothy Folk Club, Gainsborough, UK several times in the '70's. He came from the Derby area (I think) and was a Gordon Lightfoot afficionado. Does he still perform? Anyone seen him lately? |
