16 Jun 06 - 06:57 AM (#1761243) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Duo Carter & Jones - anybody remember? From: GUEST,Bruce Baillie Martin Carter and was his name spelled GRAEME Jones? I saw them a few times back in the 70's, very good they were, 1976 I believe, around the time I was performing with Maartin Allcock |

First in 1974 at The Ship & Royal and the following year at The Douglass Vaults. I saw them later in Newcastle at The Guildhall around 1976 but that would be the last that I saw or heard of them. |

From: Peace Passed on to me by a friend: http://www.clintstones.co.uk/barbs/barbie/where_are_they_now.htm " Martin Carter and Graham Jones Martin Carter had a very distinctive style and Graham Jones played an impressive fretless bass. Remember the song, "Market Day in Monpazier"? (I think I got the title right). Did they ever make any albums? If so, I'd love to get my hands on one. The only other info I have on them is that Graham Jones has worked with Allan Taylor on one of his albums. Grateful thanks to the folks who have sent me some recordings of MC & GJ. Between us we are still hoping for some news of them in recent years. Associated website: http://www.allantaylor.com/discography/roll/" |
17 Jun 06 - 06:44 AM (#1762088) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Duo Carter & Jones - anybody remembe From: The Badger Martin made two albums on the Tradition Label - Someone New and Ups and Downs - in the early seventies, which are now in a back catalogue bought by Celtic Music. Alan Rose of Keithley Folk Club might know his present circumstances. |
