Jerusalem Tomorrow (David Olney RIP)

I can't remember when I first heard David Olney singing perhaps 1991. I heard him singing either "Women Across The River" or this song - Jerusalem Tomorrow. (both on his "Deeper Well" album. I realised that this was a literate, complex songwriter and craftsman. I immediately visited a small independent Record shop and challenged him to source every album he could get by this David Olney chap. I think it was in 2003 when I heard that David was to do a concert ni a place in Kent - a fair journey from where we live, but my wife and I decided it was not a concert to miss, so we phoned and booked two tickets, then, on the day set off early for what proved to be a faster journey than we anticipated. We arrived at the venue and met the man who had organised the event, and asked him where we might go to get a meal before the concert. He told us that he was about to serve up a meal for his family and David and kindly invited us. I sat and dined (boeuf bourguignon?) and sat opposite David - here was, as I suspected , a deep and complex mind! The meal and the company was a sheer delight. (and he wore a brown hat throughout). I pretty soon incorporated some of his songs into my solo repertoire - few "got them" David died suddenly at a folk festival in Florida (USA) five days ago - on the 18th of January. he was 12 days younger than I. I urge those who appreciate complex song crafting to investigate his repertoire. You will be rewarded. Farewell Mr Olney.
