I'm glad I'm not  a 'band t-shirt' person if this is how much they are. Nice design, mind.

They're being sold on the 'Sandy Denny and Friends' Facebook page I notice.  
I presume that they aren't for sale on FC's Facebook page?!

Thanks.

He used to offer splendid bargains on music & (imported Garcia / Dead) tee shirts. Now bolstering the pension fund, I suppose.

It didn't feel right plugging this in the RIP post so I'll put it here.

Here's my previously unpublished interview with Dave Swarbrick in March 2007.  Topics include his illness and donor cards /  Alistair Hulett and politics in music / the BBC folk awards / touring Australia and much more.  It also has a link to some audio from his Adelaide gig with Alistair.

Here's a lengthy RT/FC and friends discography/critique which I hadn't seen before and which might interest those of a disposition which enjoys both idling away a lunch break and/or taking the author to task...
See if you can identify the albums from these snippets before you check the answers. Fez

Includes some competent but not terribly exciting performances.

Finally, Fairport cuts a record that dispenses with gushy lyrics and ponderous vocals.

A deadly dull New Age folk rock record co-produced by Mattacks and Nicol.  

A reunion record that somehow manages to be both less experimental and less entertaining than their first effort.

A record so brilliant I can't even explain it.

It's a huge letdown.

2.5 stars for 'guitar, vocal'?  Sorry, I'm not wasting time on this....  Grin

He probably knocked a couple of stars off for the "...three exhaustingly long-winded tracks".  Grin
