Title: Official Cropredy CD Releases Question
Post by: GubGub (Al) on August 12, 2017, 09:47:12 PM
Have there been any official CD releases of Fairport Cropredy performances since BBC Radio Oxford started broadcasting the set live every year?

If not, does that prohibit amy potential release of this year's performance? Does the BBC own the copyright to the recording?

I seem to recall that it was a failure to negotiate a suitable deal with the BBC that put the kibosh on the 2007 reunion getting a release.  Swarb wouldn't agree to the terms, so it all fell apart.  That's my memory of it anyway.

Yep but that was pre Radio Oxford. Radio 2 recorded the Friday night Liege & Lief set. I think Saturday highlights came out on DVD but oddly Swarbless.

Look harder...there's a very nice one out there (and indeed of all the major sets)  :)

Some of us are technophobically incapable of doing the whole torrent thing.
