ONE MAN HAND

Tony Hall is one of the most respected melodeon players in the country. In fact many think it isn’t possible to play what he does on the instrument! He is also a master of comic songs, most of which are set in his native East Anglia. The CD has a fine selection of his tunes and songs including: 'Enigma of the Southwold Tide' and 'The Haddock Song' - and his day job? He’s a cartoonist, as you can see by the cover design.

RUM AND RASPBERRY

Jeff Wesley

Live recordings from this popular singer made at The White Lion, in Wherwell, Hampshire, in November 2005.
