Great to hear that Jim Moray actually sent the award to Andy Partridge, Andy is still woefully under appreciated. Fair play to you Jim ❤

[@CFarnwide]

That was a treat! Great rendition of the song 😎

I wonder if Andy ever listened to this. I also wonder if it brought a tear to his eye (as it did mine) .. For people to experience the essence of this song as it was intended. To create a folk treasure for people, even those that never experienced Andy partridge's brilliance, to dance to, to move to, and comrade to. Simply wonderful!
