Title: The Cropredy Song
Post by: Lincolnimp on April 23, 2006, 09:43:11 AM
Reading through the 2005 programme I noticed the words to the Cropredy Song by Pete Simpson.  I don't remember hearing it and wonder if anyone else does, or knows anything about the song or writer?  Would like a chance to hear the song if I could, the lyrics seem to capture the essence of what Cropredy is all about, for me anyway.

Thanks

Yey, I've found him, not sure he was lost, but anyway .... I was recently introduced to myspace where he's got a profile.  There is also a link to his website: www.petesimpsonmusic.co.uk.  The Cropredy Song is on there along with a load of other great songs, I've bought both CDs and they're very good.  Looking forward to Cropredy again this year, a little dryer hopefully  ;)
