A veteran musician has released a new album at the age of 77.
Keith Pearson, a long-time resident of Willingham, began his music career in the 1960s performing at Hitchin Folk Club.
He later gained national recognition, touring widely and earning a devoted following across the UK and beyond.
In 1978, he was named 'best folk performer' by Melody Maker.
Mr Pearson said: "Folk music was hugely popular in the 1960s and I sang alongside many of the major folk singers of the day.

"Quite apart from wanting this new album to be a record of my own work and songs it also serves as a tribute to many fellow musicians past and present who have performed with me."
Lookin’ Back includes solo tracks as well as songs performed with the groups he formed and led, including Right Hand Band, Hit Kickers, Treacle Line, and Coup de Grass.
His music reached audiences as far as Australia, where Treacle Line became a favourite at the Tamworth Country Music Festival.
