notes

This seems like a very decent recording sourced from a radio broadcast. There may be a few of the usual glitches associated with recordings of this time. Any Fairport Convention show from this period with this line up (particularly with Richard Thompson) is worth it. I received my copy in trade. There are some interesting comments included, and I agree with them, particularly about the pillowcase remark. I think my copy has different tracking than that uploaded here earlier.
