Sleeve Notes
Ever since I first heard BILL PRICE back in 1965. I've been saying that he should make a record - and here it is at last! I was greatly impressed by Bill's singing when I met him in Canada; his fine voice and lively interpretation of traditional English songs seemed to me to put him in the first rank of British singers. I'm glad that now he can be heard by a wider audience.
Whilst he was in Canada, Bill and Roger Renwick organised “The Pedlar's Pack” Folk Club and put on the best evenings of traditional folksinging that Toronto had known.
Bill began singing at the age of 10 and was already known in various Yorkshire Clubs before I met him in Toronto in 1965. When he returned to his native Yorkshire in 1968 he resumed his singing in local clubs and concentrated on finding and performing traditional Yorkshire songs.
In the past year, Bill has been branching out to clubs beyond the Yorkshire borders, building a reputation which has finally led to this, his first record. May he make many more!
