Quite a few of our readers who also click onto face book – will have noticed that we have recently shared a number of video clips of Welsh Choirs- As many will know the Welsh people are famous for their singing with Wales often referred to as ” The Land of Song” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Welsh Male Voice Choirs have travelled all over the World and won top awards at most Musical events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is therefore not surprising that my younger years were spent singing in competitions and school choirs – then later it was quite normal to end a night of drinking at a local pub by gathering with other family and friends outside with renderings of all the old favorites like Calon Lan. – Often this was on a Sunday night outside a country pub called “The Horse-shoe” at Llaniblodwell- An old black & White place beside the River Tanat – It’s too bad we don’t have any recordings of these . -My Babsy used to sing with her sister at local dance halls – they were really good. The “Big Band days” – Ah yes ! Memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is a pic of Babsy and myself singing at a local Pub in Wales while on a visit back in 1995. We often sang together at various places while younger – including Japan in 1982 -that got us a lot of Japanese fans!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
