Folk Club
The photos above were taken when the BBC
filmed a folk type thingy (never broadcast) in the Students Union. Yes, that is
Jasper Carrot and the bloke on bass is "Brillo", if anybody can name the
others, or spot faces in the crowd, please let me know.
"A face in the
crowd" has identified the bearded singer (top right) as Noel Murphy.
If you
were there, maybe you're in this mob.
"I believe the other chap with Jasper Carrot and "Brillo" might well be Derek Brimstone, a talented and very amusing cockney folk singer very active in the late 60's and early seventies. "Christopher Wright
The B/W photo features the Keith
Spillett Folk Ensemble. This was taken in the Surrey Court lounge. Again can
you name the others?
Well Keith has emailed me and now the truth can
be told about:

It wasn't actually the Folk Club that got me involved
in the wild world of folk music.
It was her fault (please somebody tell me her name before
she reads this. I think it's Mary. I've put her on the
Who Is? page.). She was always on
about it and eventually I went to some gigs. Which got me interested and twenty
years later I run my own folk music evil empire, which has it's own vast
web site.
