Loved them as well and proof if any was ever needed that it is all about the music for him and that the fame, glory and money were secondary. Of all the times I have seen the man one of my most memorable moments was seeing them do Song to the Siren at The Colosseum in Coventry. A truly stunning, hair standing up on the back of your neck moment.

Or maybe the fame, glory and money allow it to be all about the music now - just a thought.

Maybe and it certainly brings the freedom to do what he wants. But respect to him for following his chosen path and not taking the alternative option of reforming the other band for the sake of turning his millions into many many more millions! As much as I would love to see them again!

In light of other recent postings, maybe not...  Wink

Please can we have Magma?  I guess the Brasenose & the Red Lion would be packed...

All of the above votes for Cropredy 2014 can dream on. Fact.   Wink
For Cropredy 2014 I'd love to see Dana Fuchs (great singer in Janis Joplin vein) with her band, Brett Hunt (fantastic singer songwriter from Australia), Altan and Blues 'N' Trouble.

It would be great if Wilko Johnson were still up to it next year, but I doubt he will be. His current project, according to The Who's website, is to record his final album in partnership with Roger Daltrey.

Chas 'n' Dave have form with Fairport, having appeared on the same bill with them at Led Zep's first Knebworth gig in 1979.

I recall seeing them at Cropredy a few years back - can't remember the year though.  I must admit to bopping around after having some initial misgivings. Of course Chas was a part of the marvelous Heads Hands and Feet along with Albert Lee back in the day - a fine band.

I only found out about this yesterday - I used to go out with a lad who loved HH&F, and developed a taste for them myself. Must check out iTunes....  Smiley

I first heard of them on a sampler - El Pea, I think it was - with the brilliant 'Song for Suzie' from their first album
