If it wasn't for Lonnie..........

"The Wabash Cannonball"

For steam engine enthusiasts and for those who remember the rawness and enthusiasm of the early years.

That takes me back many a year!
I can strongly recommend "The Skiffle Sessions" - Van Morrison, Lonnie Donegan and Chris Barber - live in Belfast.
It sounds like a great night, with little rehearsal.
Exile Productions Ltd 7243 8 48307 2 4
Produced by Van Morrison.
Special guest Dr John.

Thanks for putting me on to 'The Skiffle Sessions,' Alan. I have listened to some of the tracks and really enjoyed them. They have that earthy quality which characterises early live performances. I shall be listening to the rest very soon!
