  1. This blog is great...practising these songs amd playing his words over in my mind is allowing me to revisit from a new angle what a great artist Ackles was.

    Thanks for finally including a transcript to midnight carousel!

    1. Thanks. Ackles deserves more fans. I'm still working on some of the songs, so if you have any requests... shoot away!

  3. I have two recordings of David taken from a BBC radio programme – I’m guessing from around 1969 – Another Friday Night and Billy White Cloud – don’t know which show I’m afraid. They are not excellent recordings but are very good.

    I have not seen them listed anywhere and would like to share them if they are rare. Please let me know if anyone is interested

    1. Hi Tony, I just read your comment. I would love to hear them if you could share them. I think they are actually quite rare if they are really recorded live. There's very little in the way of Ackles live recordings.
