Just one quibble. When you have got four discs to play with, why programme two versions of Now Be Thankful two tracks apart (ace tune though it is)?


I'll have to go back and check, but I think one is pretty distinguishable from the other, in that it has a solo break instead of just returning to the first verse again.  Still, I agree that it would have been better to have placed the versions on separate discs.

I just heard from Swarb that he wasn't aware of the box set's existence until I informed him a couple of hours ago.  "Always the last to know".  I wonder if that's the same with other members of the band - I'd have thought they needed release forms from all those involved...??

I posted about the Full House lineup playing at the BBC when Peggy was a guest on this list late last year and Peggy didn't seem to know that such a release was being planned.  Indeed Peggy had me send him a copy of a 1970 BBC comp and claimed never to have heard the 1970 Fairport performances since playing on 'em.  If he'd been consulted about the box, presumably he'd have heard the contents by late last year.

I guess Island isn't their label anymore, but still.....

These tracks will be BBC copyright, not FC copyright - so the producers of the box det just need to licence the tracks from the BBC - there would be no need to obtain band permission whatsoever.

Yes, I thought that. Hopefully there will be an accompanying booklet to make up for it.

Same pic as on the Heyday compilation - surely there's another one around somewhere that could be used.
