about

Another song learnt from my father in law, Roy Bailey. I would accompany Roy on his annual Birthday concert at our local venue in Seffield and also at his legendary, Monday afternoon concerts at Towersey Festival on August Bank Holiday Mondays. This song always stood out for me. When Roy was in his last days at St Luke's Hospital in Sheffield, I would take my guitar and go and play for him. I was playing this one day, thinking he was asleep .... Roy joined in on the last verse of this song as I played.
It was his final performance.
