Episode 57: Chris Baillie - Swarthmore Education Centre

I had a grand old chat with Chris Bailie, Director of Swarthmore Education Centre.We talked about how Chris got into working in adult education, Sawrthmore being founded by members of the Quaker movement in 1909, the Grade II listed building it's housed in and much more.Chris chose to feature the brilliant track "Rail Road Blues" by Brendan Croker and the 5 O'Clock Shadows. Brendan has a quote from Mark Knopfler his website: "… his marvellous voice; sometimes a howling Blues shout and other times a husky, gentle roll your own …Don’t be deceived by the determinedly uncomplicated Croker … he's got deep roots…"- Mark Knopflerhttps://www.swarthmore.org.uk/https://www.pinterest.co.uk/swarthmoreleeds/_created/https://twitter.com/SwarthmoreLeedshttps://twitter.com/SwarthmoreLeedshttps://www.facebook.com/swarthmoreleedshttp://www.brendancroker.com/I make no money from this podcast and all I ask is that you enjoy it, tell your friends and if you could leave me a review I would be most grateful.If you know of someone you think would make a great guest, do get in touch - [email protected] send an mp3 or a wav if you would like your track featuring on an episode.
