Folk written 20 years ago about the first proposals for second runway.

Robin Roars Back

A song I wrote about England about twenty years ago I sometimes sing with the  OkeeDokee band.

England For Me

Written about 25 years ago and recently recorded by OkeeDokee.https://www.facebook.com/TheOkeeDokeeBand

Englandforme

I wrote and recorded this quickly as the deadline was in a couple of days for a competition for a Horsham Anthem . It didn't win so I never got around to writing any more verses. I might suggest to the rest of my band we do an OkeeDokee version sometime. Three of the band come from Horsham and the others are all from Sussex I think.

Horsham Town

Life story of a Fox in Southwater, Sussex, England.

Written around 1990 and recorded by amongst others by Martyn Wyndam Read, Gordon Bok and Damian Barber.

This version arranged by DM who also played keyboards. This recording is a copy of a copy from old cassette.

Bold Reynolds

This is a Charles Causley poem with music by Dick Richardson that I heard probably late 60’s in Redhill folk club. I have played it as best I can remember from Dick"s playing 50 years ago. I sent my recording via the internet to talented fellow OkeeDokee Mel Stevens who added an instrument I did not know he owned (anyone want to guess!?). It would help if you played through some decent speakers!

Hawthorn White

Written 1992 during trip to Bahamas with Broadwood Morris. Recorded shortly after on four track cassette machine at home. A bit of a lounge lizard version😀

In The Bahamas

Not sure when I wrote this. At least 20 years ago as Kings and Barnes was taken over by Hall and Woodhouse in 2000. I can'.t remember who is playing besides myself. Mostly software instruments I think. Vocals by me and maybe Paula.

Broadwood Morris Men Song

This is another Charles Causley poem with music by Dick Richardson that I heard probably late 60’s in Redhill folk club. I have played it as best I can remember from Dick"s playing 50 years ago. I have probably changed the melody somewhat as I did with Hawthorn White. Mel Stevens on Clarinet this time.
