Like many of my contemporaries (and many who’re not), I started playing music (or attempting to play music, which is not quite the same thing) in my early teens. Over the years, I’ve had lengthy periods of intense musical activity alternating with equally lengthy periods of equally intense musical INactivity. Currently, I’m in one of the former, and this section showcases some of what I’m currently doing, and a few of the talented peeps with whom I’m doing it.
As a starter, a solo performance (… but don’t let that put you off) of Mississippi John Hurt’s Stagolee, filmed at one of Peter Conway’s Rooftop TV sessions. The rather nice Martin guitar is Peter’s.
… and my own Bird Call Blues, performed with my worthy constituent Buffalo Bill Smith at Bob Devereux’s much-missed Salt House Gallery in St Ives, courtesy of Steve McIntosh at OneStIves.
