A friend for 20 years, a member of The Spinners folk group, died aged 82 on 26th. i make no apologies for posting this even though folk music might be looked down on by the music "officianados" on here.
A thoroughly decent bloke who helped popularise folk music again from the 60's onwards. RIP my friend.

Re: Cliff Hall RIP
I remember Cliff Hall well- the black member; and probably the only black folkie ever seen on TV.
82? Wow? How old are the rest of the Spinners then?
