The Manor Sessions

[davidmjs]

Hi Swarb

Lovely to have you on board!

One of my favourite little Fairport 'rarities' is the much bootlegged (and the odd track has sneaked out onto some of the box sets I think) Manor Sessions you recorded in '72 with Peggy, Tom Farnell and David Rea. I wondered a) if you still had original recordings of those and whether they could ever see the light of day as a coherent officially released whole, and b) whether you or Peggy have ever had any contact with Rea in the intervening 35 years?

Stay healthy!

David

yes We have the tapes, and there is a chance I guess, and from time to time I hear from dave but nowhere near enough.

That is great news about the tapes.  Fingers crossed....!

Many thanks
