Jimmy and Carol

Clare'. |

Self-penned song 'Going Nowhere' was the first song for
Ben Yeowart which he followed with the very short
Lennon/McCartney song 'Her Majesty's A Pretty Little Girl'. You just
never know what to expect from this fellow! |

Fresh from last month's Spotlight
Tony Hamblin
was next with a traditional night visiting song. He then did an
unaccompanied version of an American Folk/Ozark song. |

In his usual warm and unassuming manner
Alex Okon played two gentle classical guitar pieces,
'Habanera' and 'La Grima'. |

Vince Carr began with the Tim Buckley song
'Phantasmagoria In Two' and then played an
instrumental piece on guitar based on a tune by an Italian clarinetist.
(We didn't catch the name, so you'll have to ask Vince.) |

Next up was
Peter Murphy
with the Robin and Barry Dransfield song 'Rout Of The Blues'. Then, in
more contemplative style, he sang 'Mr Bo-Jangles'. |

Without Al, the other half of Old English,
Peter Cryer sang 2 of his
favourite traditional songs. First was 'As I Walked Out' and then
'Lord Franklin'. |

To finish the night we had Jim Wigfield,
also a recent spotlighter. First was a chilling self-penned
unaccompanied song 'Do We Know You'. And then to send us all home to
sweet dreams he finished with 'Scarlet Ribbons'. |

| 14 acts, 28
songs and tunes - another very warm night in a crowded Folk Bar. If you
weren't there, you missed a grand night - get yourself along... we're sure
you'll enjoy yourselves. Singers, Musicians & Poets
nights are held on the 1st Thursday of
every month, and there's more of the same but with extended Spotlight sets on the
3rd Thursday. |

Phew!
What more can we say? |
