Title: The Orchestral Fairport Convention Post by: Andy on September 17, 2024, 11:12:05 AM Several bands have recorded orchestral albums of their material (starting, possibly, with Deep Purple, many years ago, more recently Sting and Ian Anderson).
So I started thinking: what tracks would you nominate for such treatment. Let's say 10-15 just to give some reasonable limits. I'm still thinking about this, but, in no particular order, I reckon the following might make a good start: Who Knows Where The Time Goes The Hiring Fair The Deserter Now Be Thankful Sloth Portmeirion Fotheringay Walk AWhile Matty Groves Meet On The Ledge Title: Re: The Orchestral Fairport Convention Post by: Shane (Skirky) on September 17, 2024, 11:32:15 AM I think One More Chance would be a perfect fit, presuming you could find someone to sing it.
