05 Nov 06 - 11:00 AM (#1876702) Subject: Sydney Carter, Sid Long From: Schantieman Goodday Catters I wonder if anyone can help me on this one? I'm compiling information for a CD on recently-deceased singers and songwriters and haven't been able to find Next-of-Kin info on these two. Syd Carter was famous as the author of Lord of the Dance, Down Below etc. but googling his name doesn't reveal a website or contact address. Sid Long was less well known but his death a year or two ago did get a lot of response here; he was a robust singer, resident at NTMC and member of Notts Alliance. Any info on contacting their NoK would be appreciated - I suggest PM to avoid broadcasting it abroad. Many thanks Steve |

They seem to guard Sydney Carter's work with great care.
