The sound of music is dying on the streets of Britain. Our buskers are going down
The sound of music is dying on the streets of Britain. Our buskers are going down the drain! They are following the brains of Britain and heading for rich pastures abroad.

The Melancholy Melodies - A Eulogy to Britain's Buskers
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photo print, captured in July 1978, we witness a solemn truth unfolding on the streets of Britain. The vibrant sound of music that once echoed through every corner is now fading into oblivion. Our beloved buskers, those tireless troubadours who brought joy and rhythm to our lives, are slowly vanishing. As the lens focuses on David Bonaccorsi and Fred Levers strumming their guitars beneath Marble Arch subway in London, we can almost hear their hearts breaking with each chord they play. Their faces tell a story of disappointment and resignation as they lament the decline of their art form. Once revered for their talent and adored by passersby, these street entertainers find themselves forsaken by an audience that no longer appreciates their craft. They watch helplessly as fellow musicians abandon ship, seeking greener pastures abroad where appreciation for busking still thrives. The tune has changed; it is now one filled with sorrow and longing - "Nobody Loves Us Any More". These words reverberate through empty streets once bustling with applause and admiration. The busking lark that was once a cherished part of British culture seems destined for extinction. Let us remember this photograph not only as a testament to the decline of our street performers but also as a call to action. Let us revive the spirit of appreciation for these unsung heroes who bring life to our cities' sidewalks
