Sad news about Martin Carthy, but when he did the performance for the album awards, he was clearly not the man he was. I hate the dementia thief.
As for the report on harassment of female musicians in the Scottish music scene, thats nothing new as there wą an article about its prevalence in the British scene last year, I think. |

Never acknowledged? Well, I never. I didn't wish anyone to infer Eliza and I are acquainted She can be quite chatty online but she's had some sh1t to deal with recently which I think is related to this week's news story about the number of female musicians in Scotland who have had unwanted attention from blokes on the folk music scene. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cyv5gze9142o |

At the time I sent a message to Eliza ( never acknowledged ) saying that he shouldn't be getting on stage solo any more and urging her to ensure that if he toured again, it was with her or a trusted musician accompanying him. Never acknowledged? Well, I never. |

A sad, but inevitable announcement.
Martin appeared at Beardy a couple of years ago, solo. Unfortunately he was already at the point of forgetting lyrics or even the song he had just been playing, losing his way a few times and just coming to a halt, looking puzzled. He was treated well by the crowd who obviously loved and supported him and showed that very much. At the time I sent a message to Eliza ( never acknowledged ) saying that he shouldn't be getting on stage solo any more and urging her to ensure that if he toured again, it was with her or a trusted musician accompanying him. Dementia is awful. Sadly our family has experienced this with several becoming severely affected. We send our love and best wishes to Martin, Eliza, their family and friends. |
