The Swamp Stomp String Band tonight followed by Fairport on Tuesday and Lindisfarne, a week today. That'll do nicely!

A History of Fairport Convention? About 50 years or so old now - but what a history!


Takes me back.  Still got my 2LP copy, red ribbon.

I can't find Fairport chat thread so  here is a question for Fairport scholars.

The Quiet Joys  of Brotherhood-  the new boxed set of  80s Cropredy stuff.

Is any or all  of this out already?

I have a  Cropredy Capers box (still sealed, in fact)  and Unconventional box and don't want to rebuy stuff i already have.

Thanks folks.

Alan.


It's just a straight cheapo reissue of this, from 2004, isn't it? https://www.discogs.com/release/6487011-Fairport-Convention-The-Quiet-Joys-Of-Brotherhood-Live-At-The-Cropredy-Festivals-1986-And-1987

Which in itself is a reissue of the (from memory) The Other Boot/Third Leg cassette sets.

And which has been remastered and remodelled on the It All Came Round Again box....


Thanks David.

Looks like i haven't got the material-

What's the sound quality like?


Fair to middling.  Much cleaner (remastered) on the recent box, although there were some complaints about the remastering by one or two on here at the time.  The 2004 one is available for a fiver or so, so I wouldn't fork out much more.  I've probably got one I can send you tbh...drop me a line.

Isn’t that the same box that came out in 2004? Cropredys 86 and 87 and a DVD?


It's been out before yes.

A bit confusing-  a quick check tells me it was in 2 versios- 2CD + DVD,   and 4CD.

The latter would be of  interest to me as i don't do DVD.

Just bought tickets for Lindisfarne (last seen when I was at university in 1985) at Exmouth, and for Steeleye Span and for Kate Rusby, both in Exeter.

The current line up are really good. Only Rod Clements from the original line up. But the others, particularly Dave Hull-Denholm (Alan Hull's son in law) are great musicians.

The first Burslem Urban Rock Festival will take place on May 25 at The Lemmy Plaza near to the Lemmy statue. The statue is absolutely wonderful, easily the best statue I've ever seen, worth a visit on its own.
