Norma Waterson with Taj Mahal and Bob
Copper at the BBC Radio2 Annual Folk Awards at The Cumberland Hotel
on London's Park Lane 5 February 2001. Bob Copper received the Good
Tradition Award, a lifetime achievement award. Norma was named Folk
Singer of the Year, but her award was also arguably for the achievements
of a lifetime. Her husband Martin Carthy was also nominated for this award,
along with Roy Bailey, Niamh Parsons, Kate Rusby and Ralph McTell.

Garry Gillard thanks Jon Dudley for the photo ...

AND Copper family sites for three years

There is a Mudcat Café thread discussing these awards.
And there's a BBC
Radio2 page for the awards, including video of the event.
