Winter issue now out!
It seems as if winter has already arrived; we’ve got the extra 4.5 tog duvet out and buttoned it into the cover, the heating’s on a few hours daily, and my nose is cold. But there's a lot in the winter edition of Tykes' News to keep you distracted from the cold we hope.
There are fond memories, from both Steve Tilston and Maggie Boyle, of Bert Jansch. Around up of Whitby festival, including a report on the 20th anniversary concert celebrating the lives and works of Keith Marsden and Peter Bellamy, and a rallying call for all of us against their proposed scrapping of all minority music programmes by the BBC. And a fascinating article about Bob Dylan thrown in for good measure.
