Back In The Field - Norwegian Wood - Wreckers Prayer
http://andyrobertsmusic.blogspot.com/2010/03/back-in-field-norwegian-wood-wreckers.html
That was a whole week ago, so I'm getting behind with blogging the weekly songs which makes it more difficult to remember.So the date was Wednesday 10th March at Havering Folk Club and the songs I played last week were Back in The Field and Norwegian Wood.If I remember correctly there was also time for one last song at the end of the evening and I played The Wreckers Prayer.Not to self: Must be more prompt when writing up these music blogs. According to youtube I seem to have played The Rowan Tree recently as well and that may well be a missing week.

Havering Folk Club Halloween Night
http://andyrobertsmusic.blogspot.com/2009/10/havering-folk-club-halloween-night.html
Havering Folk Club likes to celebrate Halloween Night on the nearest Wednesday so this year it was on October 28th 2009. Some people dress up, most probably, but Linda and I were neither prepared nor really in the mood for costumes so we came as ourselves :-) Last year's Halloween Night event was choreographed by the Hillbilly Express and this year was similar but even more chaotic, with Simon and Pep dual MCing. Music and Poetry.... Having already rehearsed The Rowan Tree at the beginning of the month without video capture I was prepared to have another go especially for Halloween night and this was after my version of Loudon Wainwright's Be Careful There's a Baby in The House.

The Rowan Tree Folk Song
http://andyrobertsmusic.blogspot.com/2009/10/rowan-tree-folk-song.html
The Rowan TreeLast Week at Havering Folk Club I tried out a new song called "The Rowan Tree" which is a song about four witchee witches I wrote when I was in Scotland recently. There really is a rowan tree in my front garden which I planted myself some years ago and it is a matter of folklore that the Rowan tree is supposed to help keep witches away. It's a suitable topic for the Halloween night session coming up later in October but I thought I'd give it an airing first, and the feedback was very encouraging. You can never tell with a new song if the initial enthusiasm is going to die away to nothing or if it's going to become a lasting part of the repertoire. There wasn't a video from the Havering Folk Club performance but we do have a recording from the previous Tuesday night session which was a lively one too. Here's The Rowan Tree video: The lyrics to the Rowan Tree have been posted both on the Andy Roberts blog and on the youTube video so there's no need to reproduce them here. Deep River BluesEarlier at the session I played my version of "Deep River Blues" and then afterwards, John from Foxen showed me the proper chords :-) I play it in C for some reason: Next week it's the turn of Smolowik to have his members featured evening at Havering Folk club so I'm looking forward to that.
