About Me
- Nige
- Nige, who, like Mr Kenneth Horne, prefers to remain anonymous, was also a founder blogger of The Dabbler and a co-blogger on the Bryan Appleyard Thought Experiments blog. He is the sole blogger on this one, and his principal aim is to share various of life's pleasures. These tend to relate to books, art, poems, butterflies, birds, churches, music, walking, weather, drink, etc, with occasional references to the passing scene. His book, The Mother of Beauty: On the Golden Age of English Church Monuments, and Other Matters of Life and Death, is available on Amazon or direct from the author.
i only discovered the McGarrigles in August or so - i heard 'Heart Like a Wheel' on Radio 3's Late Junction and was smitten.
ReplyDeleteOne of that group of natural musicians, unlike today's production line offering's, she is a great loss.
ReplyDeleteThe Transatlantic Sessions gig with the McGarrigles including Rufus Wainwright, Emmylou, Ally Mcbain, Jay Ungar, Mary Black and Karen Matheson singing Hard Times is one of the greatest musical experiences, at times almost unbearable to watch and listen to.
You are usually the conduit for so much that is good Nige; this news, particularly if you remember our short exchange a few weeks ago, is a dreadful blow - to all lovers of music, of whatever hue. And yes Malty, hard to watch then, even harder now.
