Dave and Dave were a folk duo, of which I was a member along with my great friend Dave Hislop.
We started off as a skiffle group, playing at a pub in Wormley, Herts called The Globe, before were even old enough to drink there. This was about 1956.
By about 1960 we had restarted Hoddesdon Folk Club, Herts and had reduced to a duo eventually singing more and more unaccompanied, traditional British folk songs. Hoddesdon was probably one of the first dozen folk clubs in the country.
