Title: A suprise set list for 2007.... Post by: Sir Martin on October 13, 2006, 10:59:18 AM I apologise if this has been done before - but I was thinking the other day....
Fairport are one of the few bands that have a plethora of great songs that have not been played live for years, if at all. So why not suprise the audience with a 'bet you've never heard this before' set? Starters for ten.... Polly on the Shore Bonny Bunch of Roses Honour and Praise* John the Gun Travelling by Steam *I can remember them doing this - but it was a while ago. Title: Re: A suprise set list for 2007....

Now thats a real pity - I love the tone of Swarbs voice. A week or so ago I played the boxed set all the way through, and the songs that really stood out were where he was singing.
