He's a one off, totally original. Fabulous! In his own way continuing the English folk song tradition..Thanks so much for sharing this.

Back in time that's where these sounds take me!

Hi Fonz.
My wife, Sally, remembers you at Shepreth School where she was a dinner lady in the late 1970s.
Good to know you're alive and kicking. (I also worked at DTV, Station Works)

I remember this from when I was a lid and still have a fondness for these songs. Quirky and from another age.......aahh

Can’t thank you enough for sharing this! Absolutely brilliant

This wouldn't have been played on the radio if it hadn't been for Sir George Martin at EMI by 1966. Sir George had the sense to put it out nationally on the Parlophone label so that it would sell properly. He should have done the same for a series of EPs by Eric Winstone & his Orchestra recorded independently in his own recording studio the following year.
