Out of boredom, I was just looking through the Q&A section of RT's website, when I came across this... I see that [cut] geeky question! Graeme Taylor
PS. After your Fairport reunion, Ashley is now trying to put together a 'Rise Up Like The Sun' Albion Band rematch... I have a feeling this is the real Graeme Taylor, as I have just found this on his website... I had a long, warm and friendly chat with Ashley Hutchings at the recent BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, regarding a reformation of The Albion Band as featured on the Rise Up Like The Sun album. This is now under discussion between the members of the original band. I really do hope this goes ahead  |

Ooh, yes, that would be wonderful! (Sadly, without Howard Evans, though.) ...and yes, yes, yes to a RULTS reunion as well. |

Do you think RT would join in? I can't see it myself. But Ashley, Simon, DM, Tams et al would still be terrific. Is Julie Covington still around? I used to watch her on Rock Follies when I was a lad.

I don't think she sings nowadays.  By all accounts, she's seems pretty reclusive these days - more's the pity. Even her official website ceased to be, some time ago. I really love her singing... especially in Rock Follies. First time I heard her was when I went on a school trip to see Godspell - many moons ago (as well as Julie, the cast at the time also included David Essex, Jeremy Irons and Marti Webb). |

Her version of Only Women Bleed is one of my all time favourite singles. Did she take part in the recent live production of War Of The Worlds do we know? Unfortunately, given her difficulties with live performance, I suspect that Linda Thompson may not be up for this either. |

Yeah, RT came to guest on Julie's record and was gelling so well with the rhythm section that the First Light sessions were soon booked. Jules |

What a coincidence... I picked up RULTS this morning to play in the car. I would dearly love to see this line-up live, and a double bill with the Home Service would be just fantastic.

No. I can't remember who did, because my DVD is at home. Russell Watson played The Parson, originally done by Phil Lynott. Paul |

Doubt that RT will join. He has his own tour to do.  But I saw the RULTS- line up a couple of times in the late 70s and Graeme T. played in a way that left no wishes for another guitarist. I think he did a terrific job both on record and live but maybe his name isn't as wellknown as RT:s and Jerry D:s for example. |

RT was never part of this line up, so why should he join in? He wasn't even a guest guitarist on the album, just backing vocals on three tracks.  Sorry, don't understand. http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~zierke/guvnor/records/riseuplikethesun.html |

seeing as how the rise up line up and the home service were more or less the same group with a brass section and a different bass player i would love to see them tour,it would be a must see for anyone with a passing interest in the rock we call folk
