H:Harry ended up marrying one of the girls - Vera. I remember Harry
H:playing it so well - just a great tune. I stayed with Harry & Vera in
H:the early 1980s with a friend Pete Duggan at Binalong. We had been
H:traveling all day and were tired but we recorded Harry & Vera (on
H:fiddle) but eventually we had to go to bed. They played for ages, long
