18 Jun 12 - 06:33 PM (#3365196) Subject: RE: Obit: Dick Siddall - June 2012 From: s&r You don't want such a link SRS. Amongst other accomplishments Dick has held the title (awarded annually at Fylde) of the 'Worst Singer in the World'. His rendering of 'There's a Hole in my Bucket' has made grown men weep. Whether there's anything from his hammered dulcimer playing, I don't know - perhaps someone from the Nonsuch Dulcimer Club would know. Stu |
