I went to a great workshop Chris Shaw held last fall in Myrtle Beach, SC. He is a clinician for Taylor Guitars, and a great one at that. The class was great fun as well as informative. For his personal web site and email address find this page at Taylor Guitars.

Is that Chris Shaw of the Foreign Office and Hammersmith MM?
I saw him last October at Cecil Sharp House providing the music for the dancers from On Bouge. There might be a contact number for On Bouge at Martin Nail's website (for which I have mislaid the URL but is surely one of the links provided in the links above).

Both Chris and Dave were on the UK folk scene, so I don't think that the one that Mark and Glenda described who was "descended from steamboat pilots" is the right one.

I must admit that I haven't seen either of them for years.

Yes! I indeed wonder where Dave Totterdell is now? I won his LP "Room For Thought" in a folk club raffle. Dave was a talented performer. He, like many other excellent performers seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth. It would be great to renew contact with those who still do the occasional gig perhaps?

The Adirondack Chris Shaw is a good friend of mine... but clearly not the one you're looking for. But, it gives me the opportunity to ask, is that spelled with an Psh? :-)

The English Chris Shaw can usually be found at any good ceilidh in London or the northern Home Counties or fronting GIGCB.

I am the said Chris Shaw, once of Cob & Pen Folk Club, with dear old now departed Rip Rippingale. And also of the Foreign Office (retired!) and Hammersmith Morris Men. And indeed of On Bouge London French and Breton Dance Club. And also of GIG CB! who by chance are appearing at the Coin Street Festival English Ceilidh tomorrow 2 June, together with Hekety and Boka Halat, plus Hammersmith Morris Men, from 13:00 to 19:00 on London's South Bank, near the Oxo Tower.

And yes I do indeed remember you Henry - how could I possibly forget you. We'll talk soon.
