Comments and Reviews


Gill Sans SUBS 5th Jul 2016		A young Eric Northey was taken by his mother Margaret to Hollick and Taylor's music shop in Bolton where they would cut private recordings in the evening after the shop had closed. Linden Lea is the well-known setting by Vaughan Williams of William Barnes' poem, and The Little Road To Bethlehem is the carol by Michael Head. Eric says he was about 11 at the time, so circa 1956. The session had been arranged by his music teacher Rachael German, grand-daughter of Edward German, and her young son Keith Bateson played piano. Eric went on to develop a fine tenor voice and continues to sing with many amateur choirs in the region. Keith Bateson was later a BBC producer and was involved with recording sessions by the Beatles: he is well known as organist at the Bank Street Chapel in Bolton. Linden Lea on SoundCloud
