Puffin in my pint by Jim Eldon

I have to say, this song is awesome! i was with 1jadeamber when we heard the back story and the song. I swear Jim was telling me how to recognise the seabirds as they flew past! And about the sooty-grey albatross. We had this song in our heads for at least three months.

Wonderful!! I met your son yesterday in his ambulance at mitchell's fold! lovely bloke, and a very good folk guitarist! i did a steve wickham jig Dunford's fancy on my fiddle with him, and his guitar to it was brilliant!

@nkatsmum You mean Jim? Lol!

[crisoAy]

@nkatsmum That'd be grand.... I can't remember exactly where my recording came from but I must have the tape somewhere..... I'd love you to upload it as I'm forever telling my friends about it. "Stuck in Maggie's England..... " That gives some idea of the age of the recording!

Cheers

lol I meant Jim but the name John's in my head for some reason..lol still a legend :)

[crisoAy]

Any chance that we can see and hear Jim's rendition of Dancing In The Dark? I have it on tape somewhere but couldn't tell you where it came from... someone passed it to me many years ago.

@crisoAy He hasn't recorded that one with me yet, although there are still quite a few classics in the can! Hopefully Jim will pop around again soon, and I'll read him your comment.
