Roy Guest (13 March 1934 – 23 September 1996) was a folk singer and impresario. Born in Izmir, Turkey, Guest came to prominence in the 1960s as a promoter with Harold Davison, and with Brian Epstein's NEMS enterprises. He oversaw the London concert debuts of Simon and Garfunkel,[1] the Incredible String Band and Fairport Convention. He was also an agent during the early careers of Al Stewart and Sandy Denny.[2] Guest was also co-founder, with Jim Haynes (of the Traverse Theatre), of the Howff folk music club in Edinburgh. Notably Bert Jansch started his career at the club which became a meeting place for folk musicians including Archie Fisher and Owen Hand, and the folk duo of Robin Hall and Jimmie Macgregor.[3] Guest died in Faversham, Kent in September, 1996, at the age of 62.[2] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.bradfordtimeline.co.uk/mindex67f.htm | title=Concerts & Package Tours : 1967 (March - April) | publisher=www.bradfordtimeline.co.uk | accessdate=October 9, 2011}} 2. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/spl/aberdeen/roy-guest-1.429550 | title=Roy Guest | publisher=www.heraldscotsman.com | accessdate=October 9, 2011 | author=Adams, Rob}} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://news.scotsman.com/obituaries/Obituary-Bert-Jansch-musician.6848398.jp | title=Obituary: Bert Jansch, musician | publisher=News.scotsman.com | date=October 6, 2011 | accessdate=October 9, 2011 | author=Steven, Alasdair}} External links
