I saw the Beatles live but missed Adge...Truly I wish they were reversed...

Great video clip,Adge inspired me,to form, THE CORNISH WURZELLS,5 years ago,and we now have with us,Mr Terry Pascoe who was with the Wurzels during the 1980s for a while,and we cover a lot of Adges songs,and they are still enjoyed in the west country,we are also great friends with Adges banjo player inthe clip,Mr Reg Quantrill,who has endorsed our band.

@789holland Good to hear Reg is still going strong. Is he still involved in the jazz scene too?

I'd love to go back in time to the 1960s and attend a concert by the original Adge Cutler and the Wurzels! The feel-good atmosphere looks great here.
