Reg Meuross 12 Silk Handkerchiefs at St Mary´s Church

12 Silk Handkerchiefs´ is a moving song-cycle written by internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter Reg Meuross. Six songs threaded with a powerful narration written and spoken by the author of The Headscarf Revolutionaries, Brian W Lavery.

Meuross tells the story as only he can, with beautifully crafted lyrics and melodies that touch the soul, of Hull´s 1968 triple trawler disaster and the subsequent uprising led by fighting fishwife Mrs Lillian Bilocca, demanding greater safety on the ships.
