Mr Cosgill's Delight - Magpie 1979

Thames TV's Magpie programme featuring Folk Rock band Mr Cosgill's Delight. Band members: Tim Constable (Gtr), Steve Crickett (Drms), Andrew Hobday (Bass), Paul James (Voc, whistle), Dave Shepherd (Fid), Paul Woloschuk (Kbds). First broadcast on 20th April 1979. In February 1980, the band changed its name to Dr Cosgill before splitting up in late 1981. Members of the band met up again in 2008 and after a pint or two decided to get together for a session. The result of the session was a reformed format which performed under the name of 'Fable of the Bees'. Two demo videos created in 2012 by FotB have been uploaded to YouTube. FotB performed four or five gigs before logistical issues resulted in the band calling it a day. Dr Cosgill MySpace site: http://www.myspace.com/drcosgill
