Thought I'd commended on this. My old man and gradfer were avonmouth green groucers . The old man took me on one of the last pill ferries and that's why he were a great father. Thanks larry

My grandmother grew up in Pill ( she lived with her grandmother and her grandfather, who was a sea captain ) She left Somerset in her 60's to live nearer family and in her 80's and 90's , after a glass of sherry on a Sunday she would sing this song to her grandchildren.

Thx for your supportive letter ol bean.Adge's wife (Eyvonne) used to do a few numbers in my live music joint (Piano Bar Clifton) on Sun afternoons during the period when bars closed at 10.30 pm.We had licences enabling us to stay open all day and into 2am following.Eyvonne liked a few belts,and was one of our lovable characters,along with Ronnie Corbett,and Baldrick of Blackadder fame to name some notables.The old girl is long gone now,but I miss her company despite her appaling voice !

When the nights are dark and stormy And the bitter north wind blows Cross the fields from Shirehampton Where the muddy Avon flows Where the Pillites gaily ride Over on the ferry from the other side The boat starts swingin, you'll hear them singin' Float in on the tide! Chorus: Pill, Pill, I love thee still Even though I'm leaving Pill, Pill, I love thee still When the ferry boat starts heavin When the rain down pours, the thunder roars The lightnin flashes bright I'll be better by far in The Duke or The Star Than on the Old Pill Ferry tonight

Wonderful memories of were I spent the 1st 12 years of my life. I knew Adge well - he pinched my Mum's bottom one night in The Duke of Cornwall Pib for which he got a slap! They still remained friends!!! Mum and I also saw him in his MG the day he tragically died in a car crash

I said 8 Years ago (SQUARE AFFAIRS) that this was the BEST Version of Pill Pill I've ever come across. I can still say in 2021 that it ain't been beaten yet ! I'm just putting up a One Page tribute to Adge which includes a ' Memorium ' bit on his wife Yvonne Cutler as she was interviewwd by Roger Bennett (HTV) at the AGH Terrace Bar next to Clifton S. Bridge. While trying to gather as much of AC's original Songs (prior to Pete Budd era ) , I can say that it is a hard task unlike "Pill Pill" on your site Bob ........ SO! I hope you don't mind if I include YOUR Version with all due credit. NATCH ! The site Bristol News Online with Adge's Tribute isn't complete as we speak - BUT - hopefully will be by 18/5/21 coming. I'll post a "Click-2-Link" online version soon as I'm sure you of all people will appreciate the effort ! ---- Trying to do a few more Tributes-2- Bristol-Legends, as and when time permits. Sadly, most have all gone home, and with them, so have all the Landlord's who ran such Iconic Pub's. Wishing you well Bob & Keep up the good work ! :-) Burky xx

Having researched all the Sh** copy-cat"Tribute" (Bollox) sites, I see very little real tributes at all - Merely a way to plug their crap rip-offs ! Esp BUDD. This is still the best visual tribute using Adge's original & unique vocals ! None barely mention Yvonne, not even an obituary. Great stuff Bob.

Me too! My Dad - from Oxford - loved these records in the 70s, & was gutted when Adge died. Now I've just discovered my grandfather's grandmother & 5+ generations before her came from Pill! (Not on Dad's side tho', on Mum's.) If only Dad (&Mum) were alive to tell them the news!

This is probably still the best tribute video with original lyrics by Adge Ive seen ! Can't stand that tosser Pete Budd putting on a total piss-take somerset accent & bastardising A.C.'s real music ! Wish you could dig-up some more of the original sounds & set them to video as with this one ? That would be true dedication for sure !! :-)) Burky
