Title: vintage Fairport clips (Now Be Thankful/Polly On The Shore) Post by: koho (Koen) on July 06, 2006, 09:27:13 AM Spotted this on the rather fab www.youtube.com again --
Now Be Thankful From the 1970 Maidstone video -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYseM8tPGxE&search=fairport And the 1973/4 clip as featured on the It All Comes Round Again video (as is the other one, come to think of it) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBYNzVfknB8&search=fairport The latter filmed behind the Brasenose at Cropredy!

Search for Steeleye Span in youtube for a few more clips.

But many thanks for the clips... Title: Re: vintage Fairport clips (Now Be Thankful/Polly On The Shore) Post by: Jan_ on October 23, 2006, 10:29:18 AM Just watched these two clips. The first made me feel all maternal, which is very weird, since these guys are all older than me! I suppose it's because they were about the same age as my own now. The second has whetted my appetite for the new CD. Great footage - thanks. :)

It's 'Lord Inchiquin' - Simon's solo bit from the 'Five Centuries Medley' (the others were mainly from 'Shuffle Off', including a bagpipe version of 'Seaside Shuffle') Title: Re: vintage Fairport clips (Now Be Thankful/Polly On The Shore) Post by: Big Dave on October 25, 2006, 04:54:09 PM Well done Alex, would have bugged me all night that! ;) ;D
Title: Re: vintage Fairport clips (Now Be Thankful/Polly On The Shore) Post by: Amethyst (Jenny) on October 25, 2006, 06:18:31 PM Aha thanks.. that's the fella... can you tell us more re the Five Centuries Medley please??
Title: Re: vintage Fairport clips (Now Be Thankful/Polly On The Shore) Post by: Alex Lyons on October 27, 2006, 12:43:04 PM Aha thanks.. that's the fella... can you tell us more re the Five Centuries Medley please?? Sorry Amethyst, missed this one. It was a longish - getting on for 8-10 mins - instrumental medley, sort of the centrepiece of the Albions set for the 1982-83 line-ups. Usually ran something like this: Brawl/Fine Companions/Snowdrop Polka/Albion Tango/Seaside Shuffle (Most of those on 'Shuffle Off', just 'Fine Companions' slipped through the net I think) However that was mainly when Simon was away with Swarb/Fairport/Richard (Alun Davies usually stepped in) so when Simon was present they'd replace the Playford tune (Fine Companions) with 'Lord Inchiquin' as a rare Nicol solo. And just for interest's sake, the Cropredy 1983 set: The Albions Are In Town Again - segues into: A Simple Melody/Faggot Dance The Green Mist Dance Tune Medley: Brawl/Lord Inchiquin (Simon Solo)/Polka/Tango/Seaside Shuffle Degrees Of Separation/The Shipwreck (Love Is Like A) Railway Station Orion's Belt/The Rose & The Rock Beware Of Blue |
