Pentangle: Finale (Record Store Day 3LP, 2016).
I must only have played this a few times but it's very good. It's from the 2008 anniversary tour and I was at one of the concerts. . RIP John, Bert, Danny, Terry.

Attended a concert about the 1826 Lancashire Loom Breakers riots when workers turned against the increasing mechanisation of their jobs and rampaged around East Lancashire for a week destroying the new fangled looms.
A mix of narration, song and dance, that was a wonderful afternoon. Of course it all failed. The mill owners hijacked the money coming in to look after the poor to rebuild their mills with even better equipment, but at least the workers tried. Sadly some died, but many who were sentenced to death had their sentences commuted and were imprisoned for a maximum of 18 months.

Sounds good. What sort of thing have they been playing on the concerts they have done together so far? (Might give a clue as to what may be on the album.) Only setlist I can see is a mini-one... https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/peter-knight-and-maddy-prior/2026/cecil-sharp-house-london-england-2b4b28fa.html |

So looking forward to seeing this. Any thoughts on the ISB piece? It was okay- singer stumbled on the scansion at one point but if course I've been listening to the original for decades so any deviation would stand out. It sort of pleases me the ISB are , in this case at least, included as part of a prog. canon. ' Ithkos' might have been a better choice. |

The ISB piece was very good to my ears, and Gruf Rhys' best performance. He was the weak link to a certain extent, when he first came on to sing Living In The Past he was like a deer in the headlights and had a bit of a 'mare. Glad he improved as the nerves eased as it was his birthday.

I recently went to a film and talk about Hollywood at the local museum. There was quite a bit of Dead in it including an interview with Bobby. Mrs Reg and The Amazing Beatleman produced a multimedia box set of th festival as part of a business project by a special needs clsss, all with proper licenses. It was a while back but I sourced the Dead audio for them from The Live Music Archive. This one, Nick? https://www.discogs.com/release/5539560-Grateful-Dead-Grateful-Dead-At-The-Hollywood-Festival |

Ah, Ozit-Morpheus Records... I have a Beefheart album on that label - "Merseytrout - Live in Liverpool" - I bought it because I attended that very gig, which was in a nightclub (I think called Bailey's or Romeo & Juliet's by then, but had been the Top Rank Suite). Happy days/daze indeed.
(Incidentally, the album title is loosely connected to the Liverpool term "Mersey goldfish" - aka a jobbie). However, the album is far from sh!te. |
