Title: RT - Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands Post by: StephenGiles on November 02, 2021, 10:59:29 AM I can't locate my copy of the Rumour & Sigh Album, and I was wondering if there is any reference to the tune played at the end of Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands in the cover notes or elsewhere - which I now know is called "Pet of the Pipers". Did the RT Band ever play this live with a JK line up?

Title: Re: RT - Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands Post by: StephenGiles on November 02, 2021, 03:14:21 PM Thanks. The RT Band played Don't Sit on my Jimmy Shands at the London Palladium 03/11/1991 with this line up,
Richard Thompson guitar/vocals Clive Gregson guitar/keyboards/vocals Pat Donaldson bass John Kirkpatrick accordion Shawn Colvin vocals Dave Mattacks drums It was played as per the record, plus another couple of tunes on the end. I can hear the very uncomfortable Palladium seats creaking in my recording!!!
