    Very nice. I’d appreciate the source for the music and dance. The dance looks (I think) like that collected in the Mevagissey/St Austell area.

    what fun I used to see Brenda quite often in the old Pannier Market in Truro in the 1970s and met Ben on several occasions when he helped me with my singing. They were both very funny kind good people .

    Thank you for sharing this. I got the Topic record at a vinyl fair in Brighton a few years ago so find it fascinating to hear the background information and reasons for the recordings existence. Hope you're continuing investigation with spectral analysis and your visit to the BBC archives throws up more information, I'd love to hear the results. Thanks, Kaile

    So pleased to have that glimpse of Kenny Pelmear. He was one of my teachers over 50 years ago and so nice to see an image of him again. As a child I had no conception of what great things he was doing, and would do to contribute to Cornish culture. A really nice man and a great pleasure to have known him.
