    “I am one of the last of a small tribe of troubadours who still believe that life is a beautiful and exciting journey with a purpose and grace well worth singing about.” E Y Harburg Purpose + Grace started as a list of songs and a list of possible guests. It is a wide mixture of material, from a traditional song I first heard 50 years ago, other songs that have been with me for decades, waiting to be arranged, to new original songs. You stand in a long line when you perform songs like this, you honour the ancestors, but hopefully the songs become, if only briefly your own, or a part of you. To call on my friends and peers to make this recording has been a great pleasure. Turning the two lists into a coherent whole was joyous. On previous recordings I’ve invited guest musicians to play their instruments, here, I asked singers for their unique contributions to these songs. Accompanying song has always been my favourite occupation, so it made perfect sense to have vocal and instrumental collaborations. In 1976 I had just released my first album and had been picked up by a heavy, old school music business manager whose avowed intent was to make me a star. I was not averse to the concept, and went straight from small folk clubs to opening shows for Steeleye Span at the biggest halls in the country. Early the next year June Tabor asked me if I would accompany her on tour. I was ecstatic and duly reported to my manager, who told me I was a star and didn’t play for other people.

    Issue 44 SLAP Supporting Local Arts & Performers Hello and a belated Happy New Year to you all! As we go headlong into our 5th term we are hopeful of a great year ahead for the local music and arts scenes. Other noteable anniversaries include a 10th birthday for Artrix in Bromsgrove, so look out for the celebrations there in April. The Marrs Bar now in its 15 year and The Swan Theatre which first opened its doors to the public a staggering 50 years ago! We also have many new initiatives to celebrate this year, Feb 2015 such as the brand new Breaking Bands Festival at Stoke Prior, Bromsgrove which will sit nicely along side other major local festivals such as Nozstock, Lakefest, Wychwood and 2000 Trees to name but a few. SLAP MAGAZINE Despite many venues up and down the country sadly having to finally close their doors, we are seeing more and more local Unit 3a, Lowesmoor Wharf, promoters such as Never Mind the Bullocks, Surprise Worcester WR1 2RS Attacks, Hereford Live, CFS Presents & Embrace the Chaos Telephone: 01905 26660 putting on great shows at different venues.

In fact it’s this kind of initiative For advertising enquiries, please contact: that keeps us excited about the future of music around the [email protected] counties. Perhaps this is why many local acts are getting played more regularly on 6music and bands like Das Sexy EDITORIAL Mark Hogan - Editor Clap and Stiff Joints even played on Radio 1.

  • Guest List 1983 - 2006
    The GUEST LIST 1983 - 2006 Greyhound, Weston Green Oct. 1983 - Jan. 1985 Hand and Spear, Weybridge Feb. 1985 - Sept. 1987 Ram Club, Foley Arms, Claygate Oct. 1987 - present www.theramclub.co.uk Compiled by Steve & Diane Poole Once Upon a Time … The Ram Folk Club has run most Fridays (give or take the odd Christmas, Good Fridays and Augusts) since October 1983. And soon we’ll be 25 years young. Just like the 60s, many of us were there but can’t remember much about the early years apart from the fact that we had a spiffing time. From the mid-90s to the present day - let’s call this period A.D. (‘After Digitalisation’) - we have a full record of our guests, thanks to the efforts of our resident IT expert Graham Gurrin, who created the website. In fact, we were one of the first clubs to have one of these new-fangled things (as opposed to the traditional web sites that have hung unmolested in our rafters since we came here) …which brings us to the period B.C. (‘Before Computers’). Like the Dead Sea Scrolls, the ancient papyrus of the early gospels known as ‘The Ram Page’ got lost somewhere along the road to Damascus. Typewriters of the day did not have memories, less so the scribes. And if only there was an ‘undo’ button in life..... The club was started at the Greyhound pub in Weston Green in October 1983 by Brian and Jane Ravenhill, and continued for many successful years under their stewardship (with help from others), moving briefly to Weybridge before finding its spiritual home here at the Foley Arms in 1987.
