Just found this in an ancient scrapbook - came out of the Melody Maker, if anybody remembers that august organ.

There are more if any of you find this one educational  Grin

Well once you start scanning it's hard to stop...

One is a flyer which I picked up at a Fairport gig not that far from Farnsfield in mid 1979, and the other is a cover of a defunct organ called Beat Instrumental - April 1971 issue. Fab gear eh? (especially Swarb's coat)

Cheers -Ed

I used to subscribe to Beat Instrumental when I was a kid. Don't think I went back that far though.

I also used to buy "Beat International" too. Much more readable than the alternative "International Musician". Most of the copies I still have somewhere date from mid to late 70's but I do have a '68 copy featuring Cream.

All this talk about still being ab;le to wear things from the FC archive has got me wondering if anyone out there has got, and can still get into a pair of the FC scanty panties which were sold sometime in the early 1980s?

Iain Matthews .... later had a number one with Matthews' Southern Comfort's version of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock".

Well worth checking out any of his solo or post-Fairport work.  I'm particularly fond of the "No Grey Faith" album of Sandy covers.
