Cliff Hall of The Spinners folk group died recently, I read an obituary in The Stage.



The Spinners alway sevoke memroies for me of Christmas Day on BBC 1, their annual concert usually followed the festive edition of Parkinson.



Ok, they were never one my favourite folk groups but they were extremly popular and remind us of gentler times.

What a shame. Like you, I was never a big fan but they always seemed to turn up at Christmas or other special times and do a good turn.

They were a very popular group in their time and one I enjoyed RIP

I remember The Spinners on the box, can anyone post Cliff's picture as I don't recall which one he was ?

[David Challinor]

This is one of their finest performances - I think Cliff played the harmonica

The front Spinner on the left could be my twin brother.

A really friendly bunch of guys - they came to York University and York theatre royal a few years ago now. On both occasions they spent ages sitting and chatting to fans after the show.
