There's a lot on it! ...and it's got the Julianne Reagan 'Who Knows' on it  This was on a charity compilation which foolishly I bought on cassette rather than CD and I've been itching to get a more robust copy of it ever since. I reckon is the finest interpretation of that song I've heard. I have a photo somewhere of her singing it  Cheers Nick Perhaps not singing 'Who Knows' - but there's a nice photo of JR in full song fronting All About Eve from 2000 on page 87 of 'Festival Folk'. cheers Joss |

Apparently, 2 packages have arrived at work for me... I'm at home - typical. Could be A Box of Peggs and/or might be a King Crimson/Projekcts set I ordered from the USA. Won't know until tonight, when my wife brings them home (and almost inevitably will not enjoy the latter; I think she'll quite like the Peggy set, though, as I'm slowly turning her on to things Fairportish).

Ah yes, it arrived this morning. Usual high quality Free Reed product BUT the quality and range of stuff on the CDs is just fantastic. Now welded onto CD player. Thoroughly enjoying it. Fab.

We had an argument the other night - all because she said I didn't open the car door for her. She said I panicked and swam out my side first....

I have to say, the cover of the book is more than a little disturbing!  It sounds good so far though. Cheers Nick |

Mine's here!!! As I've got a 5-CD changey thing, I bet you can't all guess what's happily playing it's way through. It's just gotten onto CD2 - playing through in order just the once, then it'll be random play all the way.
There's some good stuff, and some great stuff. And my name's in the booklet (YAY!!) I don't think it's signed - unless I haven't noticed it yet. No problem, just a small mission for Cropredy.
I guess it's OK to say what's on the bonus CD now?
It's a Live Peggy & PJ gig in Banbury (18th May 2007 for the pedants), with enhanced VIDEO Extras too.

Had a good listen today, very good indeed. Lots for everyone. Julianne Reagan singing WKWTTG at Cropredy in 89 particular highlight for me cos it was my first Cropredy and special.

Couple of interesting snippets in the book:
No-one seems to be able to remember what WR0008 was?
(Woodworm Records release)
There's a reference to a Sandy tribute in a Spice Girls song. Now, I'm not familiar with their canon of work, so can anyone enlighten me? I promise not to rush out & buy it...
Really enjoying dipping in & out of the CDs & the book. Well done Peggy & Nigel.

If you google Sandy Denny and Spice Girls you come up with this: "The Spice Girls’ song “The Lady is a Vamp” accidentally namechecks Sandy Denny. The CD lyric sheet refers to “Sandy Denny, summer love” rather than “Sandy and Danny, summer love”." |
