About the artist

Michael (Mike) Waterson (16 January 1941 – 22 June 2011) was an English writer, songwriter and singer. He is best-remembered as a member of The Watersons, with his sisters Lal Waterson and Norma Waterson and his brother-in-law Martin Carthy. In the 1968-1972 interval between the two incarnations of The Watersons, he and his sister Lal recorded the album Bright Phoebus. He was a member of the occasional folk "supergroup" Blue Murder. Mike also appeared in the original recording of Peter Bellamy's The Transports.
