[net.music] Request for Alex Bevan information

dlb@druca.UUCP (Dave Bauer) (09/24/83)

Alex Bevan is a folksinger with a loyal local following in the Cleveland
Ohio area.  He also was somewhat popular 4 or 5 years ago in southwest
Virginia, where I first heard of him.  He has released a couple of albums
on private local labels, titled "Springboard" and "Grand River Lullabye",
as well as an early album on Big Tree Records that even his loyal fans
aren't too familiar with, titled "No Truth To Sell".
 
Does anyone know what Alex is doing these days?  Is he still playing in 
Cleveland?   Has he put out any records other than the titles above?
If so, how can I get them?   Any up-to-date information would be appreciated.

Although I am not a big fan of Bevan, it is hard to escape
hearing about him here in Cleveland.  I'm not certain if he
is a native of the area, but it seems that he must have gotten
started in the music business here and has built up a substantial
local following.  I just checked the newspaper and see that he
is performing at a local spot Wednesday night.

If you are really interested in finding out more about him,
I'd suggest you contact his record company (whoever that might
be).  One of the local FM stations, WMMS, seems to have a good
relationship with him and might also be of help in bringing you
up to date with respect to his activities.

I posted this same request about 4 months ago, but got only one response
which said only that yes, Alex Bevan is still alive and well and performing
periodically in Cleveland.  Could anyone provide any additional information?
