The Spinners

on BBC One London

Tony Davis, Mick Groves, Cliff Hall, Hughie Jones

The folk group which caters for all sorts and conditions of folk once more offers a well-mixed selection of ballads, sea shanties, calypsos-in fact every kind of folk song, ancient and modern. Eleanor Leith will be joining the quartet as guest artist for the occasion, and there will of course be that biggest-of-all backing group - the 400-strong theatre audience of lusty singers. If fans at home want to join in, there's positively no objection. Some of the songs you might care to practise: 'John Peel', 'Rothesay-O', and 'Black and white'.
From The Octagon Theatre, Bolton
