I think he's the lad that lives with Kate Lassauer. I am wanting his permission to publish the song "John Lover" or "John Lover's Dead" that I heard performed by Keiron Means and Sara Grey Sunday last. The tune is a traditional fiddle tune called "Johnny's Gone to War", and Johnny Whelan's words are amazing and powerful. There are a couple other John Whelans around, I don't want the cowboy singer from El Paso, or the blues man. This person is from Somerset, I believe. Thanks, Blessings, Barbara |

He can be contacted via the pub that he and Kate run in Bath, the Green Park Tavern, Lower Bristol Road, Bath. Cheers Ray |

I thought that was what Keiron or Sara said. But since Kate often plays with them, I'm sure that's who I want. Blesssings, Barbara PS, if I get permission, I'll post the song. It's fine. |
