Saw these chaps a long time ago when they were supporting Fairport Convention (who have covered several of their songs over the years ). I was entranced by their gentle songs and performance. They haven't played together now for quite some time but I still enjoy my cassette tape(!) bought at the gig. I think it was in Kendal shortly after we moved to Cumbria and before my daughters were born, so it was probably late 1980s or so.
Anyway, this song brought a tear or two to my eyes, in a good way, this morning -
Huw and Tony, despite their common surname, aren't knowingly related. Although, being Welsh they might well be!!!
It's worth watching this one on Youtube, then clicking on the uploader, "Bristol Ron", to get to his channel - more of Huw and Tony there, plus several hundred superb live vids of people you will know!

Really liked that Keith...a lovely song beautifully performed. Sort of reminds of what Mike Silver does these days..
