Vin Garbutt - Tossin' A Wobbler
Back in Birmingham, I used to live a short walk from one of the best folk clubs in Britain. It wasn’t until I had a bit of an English folk awakening in the early 00’s that I realised what I’d been missing and started going. Although, unfortunately, I never went to see Vin Garbutt on any of the many occasions he played there.
Then, a decade later, across the other side of the planet, in a proper old junk shop in the Riverland town of Renmark, I find a copy of this LP for a dollar.
I think Garbutt was quite popular in Australia – it seems he used to tour here quite regularly, and this album has a South Australian distributor’s sticker on the back. And I recently saw a copy of this album in the record shop near my house.
It’s very good. Wish I’d gone to see him live.

@timrichards @skribe @Ex_spurt @danielbowen @si_fuller You'd be surprised what shows up on YouTube...
I noticed the station idents from the SA Riverland's own 5a have shown up there. On 5a, nothin' but the best: https://youtu.be/N1L7g-rQjGg
Also a song they commissioned/dragged their relos to sing to celebrate 21 years of commercial TV in Renmark: https://youtu.be/H8cWwqw_SDg
Apparently back in 1986, they used to close the station down for the evening with a message from the local parish priest: https://youtu.be/k16lhLT5fPk
