Hi
Great to see "Halfdan's Daughter" getting an airing fifty years after I wrote it.
The Moths just played their first gig in 46 years at The Wetton Arms in Derbyshire England, on Saturday night: the audience were very kind, and we were very happy it went well.

Glad to hear that The Moths are back in action, John... If you make any new recordings you know where to send them...
