Review: Cicely Fox Smith Poem Video

Here's a rare example of a great interview and some excellent camera work focusing on my favorite nautical poet Cicely Fox Smith. Troy and Chris came to my home town well prepared to do this interview and the result is clearly a labor of love. I'm delighted to have this story and video to share: click here for video!

There is an introductory Ad before the interview and singing starts. The poem is titled "By the Old Pagoda Anchorage."

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

When I saw the thread title, I know it had to be from you. Thank you for the music and the warning about the ad.

The applause from the crowd at the Old Goat Pub is the icing on the cake.

Great Stuff, Charlie. I only do 'From the North' but I have promised myself to do more C F-S songs. Maybe this is the catalyst I need.

One curious turn of events though. I spotted, in the section at the bottom that says 'related stories' ...

"Police charge woman with paying for sex…"

Now, if I could combine that I would be on a sure winner :-)

Cheers

There's no video at the original link for this but I think I've managed to track down the performance the song on youtube (By the Old Pagoda Anchorage ) but there's no interview; does anyone know if it's available anywhere?

Many thanks,
Harry
