Title: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Tasha on April 06, 2006, 01:13:28 PM just picked this up from Music Zone for less than a fiver. Release date 2006. says it has songs from between 1974 and 2002 and its all Live - WKWTTG is from the troubadour 1974, most of the rest are from various cropredys- 1985-1995
just wondering if anyone else had this or knew anymore about it? ::) [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Alex Lyons on April 06, 2006, 01:19:14 PM Don't think I've seen that mentioned anywhere, Tasha. It'll be another of the Woodworm/HTD/Talking Elephant material compilations. The old stuff'll be from 'The Airing Cupboard Tapes', then the various Cropredy releases. Nowt "previously unavailable" but a good fiver's worth if you don't have all the original albums.

The only place on the internet i can find it is on an Irish site that says its not available until 17th April ::)Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Alex Lyons on April 06, 2006, 01:37:14 PM Just found it on Amazon.

Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Maart on April 09, 2006, 04:30:35 PM I'd like to have a copy of this as I'm on it and wrote some stuff on it. Who's released it and does anyone know a contact address for them?
Taa Maart Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Dad Volt on April 09, 2006, 05:00:27 PM It looks like it's on Union Square Music records but their website is down. May be some one who has actually got it could confirm.
Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: Joss on April 10, 2006, 10:34:37 PM Hi - got my copy today, just £4.97 from Music Zone. This shop has taken over our old MVC, so if you have one of these in your town you may find a copy.
The label is www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk or their address is Union Square Music Ltd, Unit 1.1, Shepherds Studios, Rockley Road, London W14 0DA. Their email is: info@unionsquaremusic.co.uk The cover says it includes recordings 'between 1974 and 2002, both live and in the studio' etc. Great value for 2 CDs and in a card slipcase too!!! cheers Joss Title: Re: Fairport convention The classic collection CD Post by: markwood on April 13, 2006, 09:47:38 AM Apologies if this has been mentioned before but as well as this compilation, "Red and Gold" and "The Five Seasons" have also reappeared as a double CD set called, "The Battle." I spotted it for £7.99 in "Solo Music" in Exeter at the weekend. It has a rather plain cardboard sleeve and in the interests of strict "accuracy," as for most of the recent pictures on the compilation sleeves, "The Five Seasons" appears before "Red and Gold"! So, having already got 3 versions of each (vinyl + 2 CDs), well of course, I bought it...!
