Title: It was 20 years ago today Post by: Dad Volt on March 30, 2006, 12:44:33 AM Actually it wasn't but I was in the loft the other day, and I found this, it has quite a few Fairport related piccies and articles and it reminded me about lots of stuff form that time I thought I would share some bits if anyone is interested.

Ladies if you look closely I believe Ric is wearing leather trousers aaargh, someone catch Mic I think she's fainted. Just wait until I scan the picture of Chris Leslie looking like a 12 year old cheeky chappy. More later [;-)

The pic I have of Ric in Leather Trousers (oooooooohhhhhhh) seems to be wearing out... something to do with badly directed drooling I suspect. ;) Yes please DV, I'd love to hear more details from the mag :) (see, I remembered the topic ;)) mic - just as soon as I come around oooooooooooooooo hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh crash!!!!!!! Title: Re: It was 20 years ago today Post by: Dad Volt on March 30, 2006, 01:22:42 AM This piccy is from a review of the Chris Leslie & Nick Hooper LP (Remember them) Turning Tables which apparently features a version of 'The Swirling Pit'. Doesn't he look cute!!

So Ladies & Gentlemen I present to you Trevor Lucas (Dig the beard man!) & Dave Swarbrick.
