Martin, thanks for raising the Harrier's plight in such a beautiful, emotional way. I've been a fan of yours since the eighties and at the same time have watched the Hen Harriers decline in the Highlands, where I live and work, at the hands of greedy criminals. I can feel change coming, your song gives me hope.

@MartinSimpsonOfficial Done. I hope this counts. Your music means a great deal to me. I currently have Prodigal Son in my car. As soon as it starts, I feel instantly relaxed and relieved. You once sent me a handwritten transcript of Louisiana 1927, which I cherish. I have many of your CDs. You are an inspiration to me. What tuning do you use for Mother Love? I have to learn to play that one.

Things are a lot more complicated than “get rid of grouse shooting”. The Langholm moor project proved that - when the moor ceased to be managed for grouse (no burning or predator control), hen harrier numbers plummeted.

Hey Martin, I hope you’ve recovered from the virus. We really enjoyed your concert in St Austell last week. I’m not one for over using superlatives, but how can they be avoided when you are such an incredible man & guitarist!I love your passion for history, folk tales, nature & people (including Chris Packham). You come across as intelligent and well informed in his anti Conservative conversation! My husband has played guitar for around 50 years and since becoming depressed 6 months ago, he no longer plays. I wondered if a message from you (one of his heroes would lift his spirit?) Here’s a link to a song he wrote for me when we met 10 years ago; I’d love you to comment on it please. 🙏 kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2fHZ5ynhd2noLMsi=maNKFaSp9bfhdM9x
