I took my dad to Alrewas Arboretum in November 2021 - I've got a photo of him up on the hill where Gari's singing. Dad was in a wheelchair and when we started up the hill, we'd booked on a train tour of the site about a half hour later. But I didnt realise it was this big winding spiral ramp up to the top of the hill. And suddenly I realised we were running late, and I had to race Dad down in the wheelchair to make the train tour. Oh how we larfed. When I listen to this song now, it reminds me of my dad. It's a profoundly moving performance Gari and my favourite from all the versions I've heard, including the original cast recordings. god bless Sir.

Thank you David
Magnificent rendition of one of RTTW's special songs Gari, thank you from all us Wallers. Suddenly got a bit dusty around here!
Thank you Pete
