  • Bio

    .. I have been singing my songs around the clubs and festivals of the South and West for the past 20 years or so. Sometimes I venture further afield so you may have seen me in a session in North Wales, maybe, or Lincolnshire, or Yorkshire. Chances are you’ve heard one or other of my songs anyway, because they are more travelled than I am – thanks in particular to Tom Bliss, and Phil Hare. .. .. Fatea’s reviews of my 2 albums : .. .. Shades Of The Past .. .. “Whilst we often get instrumental albums in the Fatea office, vocal only albums are as rare as hens teeth so I was surprised to get two albums in at the same time. Ok they're both by Henry Clements, but it's amazing the impact they've had in the office. It's like we'd forgotten how to hear a voice on it's own. "Beacon Fires" features songs that have been written or collected by West Country vocalist Henry Clements. With no music to support it, the voice gets your entire focus. It sounds so traditional that you get surprised when you hear the modern items, like cds in the songs” .. .. Beacon Fires .. .. “Like it's companion release, "Shades Of The Past" is purely vocal renditions of songs new and old. Henry Clements is quite the story teller. His songs packed with people and images, all aspects of human life are caught here, humour and hate, love and lust. Clements voice has a strange quality to it, it's not exactly what you'ld call pitch perfect, but it has a very hypnotic quality to it. It's exactly right for the purpose it's been put to. The vocal tradition took a pounding with the cliches of jumpers and beards, maybe it's time for a fightback with Henry in the vanguard.” ..

  • David Franks: Walkabout…

    After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on MySpace...

    Poem cum song 5 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my Blog for details):
    STATE TO STATE

    (TUNE:

    C F G F
    C F G F
    C F G F
    C F G F
    F G F C
    F G F C
    F G F C

    From Sydney Town,
        In uni. break,
    I drove out west
        To earnings make
    Onion picking,
        On the fields
    Of Echuca,
        That year’s yields.

    After day’s work,
        From Y.H.A.,
    A group of us
        Would not delay
    To walk on down
        To the dirt rim
    Of the Murray,
        For a cool swim.

    On one such day,
        I do declare,
    Some three of us
        Had a big dare
    To swim across,
        From state to state,
    The wide Murray -
        I took the bait.

    Yes, foolishly,
        I took the bait -
    A choice that I
        Would come to hate,
    For I almost
        Did drown that date,
    Making the swim
        From state to state.
