Barley Water Folk Festival
John Karras (lid) and Ted Spear perform at the first Barley Water Folk Festival at the old St. James 'Y'. Bruce Talbot performs at the bottom right, same night.
In mid to late 1970s a number of these performances were held to raise money (by selling barley water to people over 18) to run trips and buy equipment for wilderness and leadership programs.
Most of these performances were taped, and I'm led to believe "someone" still has the tapes. If that "someone" would like to share them with me, I can convert them so we can all listen to John Prine's Dear Abby and Valdy's Simple Life sung by other people.- Bruce Owen
