Dr Trevor Colluney I love this unpretentious entertainer he may well have been a great opera baritone but stuck to his principles as a singer songwriter and unequivocal musician. He makes light work of a concertina.His clawhammer is faultless. Long live this modest lad from number 1 Bolton’s Yard

about

No doubt helped by my Fylde guitar, I put sixteen of my own instrumental compositions together. Some are on solo guitar, some on two or three. They range from slow airs, through ragtime style numbers to blues tinged and jazz-influenced numbers. “Pickersgill People” is a tune I wrote for a BBC2 series, and for this album I added a middle eight and recorded it on four concertinas to sound like a small concertina band. A school teacher once admitted he uses it as a piece for the children to play in his music class. Originally a cassette, I remastered it for CD in 2002, with 3 newly recorded bonus tracks, making a total of 19.
