And here we have a supergroup - Swarb, Cathy Lesurf, Chris Leslie (unless it's Ian Cutler), Bruce Rowland, Peggy and Simon. I seem to have found a flashgun for this one, not that it makes much difference. You had to be there.  [Photo over 400 days old. Removed by Admin.] |

These are from a very refreshing New Years Eve at the Half Moon Putney, 1983.
I was there. I remember the band announcing that Billy Connolly had become the father to a baby girl that day. |

Nice to see Bruce Rowland in these pics-wonder what he is up to these days? Does he still live in Denmark (I believe it was) |

Anyway here's the support act who I think was Mike Maran - didn't write on the neg sheet so i'm not certain.
Hi Ed, Your suuport act photo is of "The Amazing Mr Smith" who is, I believe, still gigging. We had him along to a night at The Norfolk Arms Rivelin a good few years ago - he was very entertaining. This is from an LP cover in my collection [Photo over 400 days old. Removed by Admin.] |

Thank goodness that's been confirmed - I thought that was The Amazing Mr Smith ! He truly is amazing and surreal, and the only man I know capable of making John Otway cry with laughter (we put Otway on at The Southsea Folk & Roots Festival in 2002 with Mr Smith as the warmup, Otway was in tears of mirth wondering how he was going to follow what he'd just seen). Still very much gigging, saw him last year : http://www.the-amazing-mr-smith.co.uk/ |

I was there too! My first live Fairport. It was Ralph McTell who announced the birth of Daisy and led the whole room in a singalong of 'Daisy, Daisy' for Billy Connolly, who was stood in the corner. I'd forgotten Cathy LeSurf singing with the band, though I remember seeing her in the seated area(!) singing along to Sloth. A fabulous night and Fairport filled in the last few minutes before midnight by singing (Bruce included) Derek and Clive's 'Jump, you f***er, jump' song! Happy days. Thanks for the photos. |

Well, here's one I've just found.
The Expletive Delighted tour, possibly, 1987?
Anyway, after the gig at Tunbridge Wells we invited them back to my mates pub (long gone, now an Indian resturant) and amazingly they turned up, except DM, but with various including Chris Pegg and my hero Jonah (now have a dog named after him).
We got slaughtered...err...a bit merry. At one point I offered Jonah a drink and he asked for a double brandy and port! Which I bought.
Happy days.
Incidentally, that's me in the white shirt next to Peggy.
