Title: Cover Songs? Post by: Kathryn on July 06, 2007, 08:43:33 PM Recently -in another thread- Dad Volt mentioned "The Mary Ellen Carter" hmmmm, I thought, I love that song and would like to hear what Fairport would do with it. So, are there any songs you'd love to hear FC cover and any thoughts on how you'd like them arranged???
I'd love to hear Simon sing Richard Shindell's haunting "Reunion Hill" Any one else have a wished-for song?? Title: Re: Cover Songs? Post by: Ian_ on July 06, 2007, 09:40:41 PM Yay!

"4 minutes 33 seconds" - John Cage "Don't laugh at me " SIR Norman Wisdom Anything by Middle of the Road particulary "Chirpy chirpy cheep cheep" Also any sheep based song (apart from "Only Ewe") :) Title: Re: Cover Songs? Post by: Andy on July 07, 2007, 07:12:55 AM The Laughing Gnome

Title: Re: Cover Songs? Post by: Simon Nicol on July 07, 2007, 09:18:00 AM "4 minutes 33 seconds" - John Cage I'm fairly certain that will be performed at Cropredy during the marathon Saturday night set: but we plan to break it up into bite-sized sections. So what you might mistake for emabarrassing hiatuses while guests' instruments are encouraged to connect with the PA will be, in fact, hommages to the 20th Century's free-est thinking serious musician.

I think Fairport could do a great job of that and it should go on the next album Title: Re: Cover Songs? Post by: Anji on July 07, 2007, 10:07:00 AM Britney's "Overprotected" But seriously ::) David Hughes' "Two Stroke" :) Title: Re: Cover Songs?

[;-) we were working on that, dunno quite what happened to it Title: Re: Cover Songs? Post by: Bridgwit (Bridget) on July 07, 2007, 07:59:18 PM I enjoyed the few Squeeze numbers FC did with Glen Tilbrook last year, but I was waiting for Slap & Tickle - Simon's voice would have been perfect. Or Even Cool for Cats!
