Thanks for all the positive comments - there's still some more clips to come but not for another day or so (can't access them atm). More details about the telecast here: http://www.rockpalastarchiv.info/concert/fairportconvention.htmlAny requests for the next one to put up? |

Fantastic stuff. I wonder what this line-up would have gone on to do, had they continued? Sounds great to me. This was one of the related videos - the entire 'Alive in New York' video from 1989 (I think) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGGr4_elQ28&feature=related |

'Twas 1991 Ollie (I was there for both sets!) hence the two songs from The Five Seasons. I still miss The Bottom Line club where this was filmed |

Peter and David...thanks. Funny, when Roger Hill passed away I was looking him up and saw the Old Horns Band page, and did not even think that Bob Brady was THAT Bob Brady. Nice to see Roger Burridge there too-a good player for sure.

Michael once again, thanks so much for sharing these. As Ollie said, I wonder what this lineup would have gone on to do. In watching these clips I am very impressed by Roger Burridge, and I love Bob Brady's enthusiasm in all these clips, smiling, clearly enjoying himself, engaging the audience. And I am a huge Dan Ar Braz fan, so seeing him here is fantastic. I remember on the Cropredy Box him saying very sincerely "maybe some of you have never heard of me before!" Its great seeing his playing here-he looked uncomfortable, yet you can see kind of a...oh what the hell kind of attitude...great stuff. I never thought I would see this, ever!

I'm glad people are enjoying seeing these - it really does put that period into a different kind of perspective when you can actually see them in action, and it's the full line-up. So here are the last 2: Lay Me Down Easy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uTRad6adgsCropredy Capers / Frog Up The Pump http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3_LzDmOKHgBob Brady engages the audience even more directly in the latter clip. |

Bob Brady may be my new Fairport hero...for physically dragging bemused Germans onto the dance floor. |

Great clips, thanks Michael. Although I only saw them once at a free outdoor show (Harlow Town Park 1976), they made a lasting impression. Very different in style to earlier or later line-ups, they were very entertaining & proficient & it's unfortunate they never really had the opportunity of producing a decent representative LP. |
