I notice in some of the older threads that there were several requests for lyrics from The Songwainers. This is just to say that I have all the original broadsheets if people were still after lyrics. My dad (Dave Stephenson) was an avid collector of, well, pretty much everything so I have all their programs and newspaper articles as well! If anyone has any questions/lyrics requests please feel free to ask or email me :) -Emily Stephenson |

One of my memories of Dave was when he MCd a sort of music hall concert in Sidmouth, probably in the 70s - wicked sense of humour. I also know Ken and Tom - in fact I was in a session with both of them just a couple of months ago. I don't have any requests for lyrics or anything, just popped in to say hello and ask (based on an assumption) if you're involved with the folk scene (don't you just hate that phrase)? Nice to hear from you. Martin Ellison |

I stopped with Mike and Jacqui a couple of times when visting Cheltenham. Ken remains, for me, one of the few people who can raise the hairs on the back of my neck when he sings. The Songwainers had the same effect. Martin |
