In the 1960s, folk music blossomed in Cornwall. Located on the spectacular mining coast of Cornwall, the Count House could hardly have been better suited as a folk music venue. Resident singers, Tel Mann and John Langford, better known as John the Fish, became the undisputed fathers of modern folk singing in Cornwall. This is John's story.

I had forgotten this interview with John, it brings back memories of when he and I sometimes sang together at the clubs here in Cornwall. I now have returned home to Cornwall and hope to visit him and Carrie soon.

Boy? John the Fish died earlier this year at the age of 86. What're you, 102? Also, more than a few people have moved from where they were born to other places they've felt more at home. He probably did more for Cornish culture than a lot of local-bred people, and who'se to say what his heritage had? My family had been living in London for a century or so, but we came from Thanckes originally. Should we give that up for the sake of a couple of generations? Methinks you've got an axe to bury, kid.
