Did we know Carthy was asked twice to join Fairport? When?

Nice piece on Martin's 84th

Maybe it came up during the sessions for Gottle O’ Geer?

He's sounding rather more cogent than the last time we saw him, a couple of years ago.

Listened to Martin and Eliza on Mark Radcliffe last night.
I'm  a little surprised to see no discussion of said album around here. Or have i missed something?

That's probably a good call.  Not sure if I've seen it mentioned before, mind.

Anybody recall this one from '79?  There's a sentence about it in the Gonna See All My Friends book but nothing substantive.
