- A short clip from 'A Toast to St Patrick' which turned up on a preloved video tape I was lent which had other direct archive material on it. The overall programme is very much of the period in setting and style but this is one of my favourite arrangements of a song also sung in Suffolk, (I think this is the Sussex version).

Oh to have been in that pub at the time. She is beautiful and he is...Martin Simpson, say no more.
The very best of English folk. A Suffolk yarn that deserves praise.
Priceless. Thank u so much for posting this. Two of the world's finest in the bloom of their magnificent talents and collaboration. It doesn't get better - different but not better. Thanks again
A wee gem.
LOVE IT GUITAR, VOICE THE LOT. FABULOUS FOLK SONG. DIFFICULT RHYTHM SO FULL MARKS FOR ACCOMPANIMENT. YOU GET LONELY SINGING ON YOUR OWN SO I BET SHE LOVED NETWORKING OVER THIS.JENNY
Great, thanks for posting this.
Wonderful but . . . took me back to the days when singers had to tolerate smokers. I'm all for people choosing their own roads to perdition but in this case glad at least that in the UK you would no longer have to sing through a fug o pipe smoke! Brilliant performances, singing and playing, of a tough little song. Thank you June and Martin
I doubt whether you are qualified to cast doubt on the ability of any guitarist let alone one so good as Ms Simpson.
Thanks for posting this! Did the tape happen to have footage of her performance of Scarecrow from the same set? My friend has been looking for that version for years, ever since her recording was damaged by a family member.
It's fine if you don't remember given that you posted this a long time ago, just thought it would be worth asking anyway as this is the only clip from that set we've been able to find online!
Hi: I managed to track down the disc and have a look, this is the only June Tabor/Martin Simpson song on the programme, which was an Ulster TV programme produced by Len Graham which I have in three parts. whether there is an extended version out there somewhere I don't know but sorry, no 'Scarecrow' on what I have. THank you for finding us. Most of what is up there is live and local to Suffolk but I occassionally post archived material that I can't see elsewhere.
folkbluesnbeyond Aw that's ok, thank you so much for checking anyway!
do you play the guitar?
you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
