I posted this in the Listening To thread a while back...
Current track playing "Sweet Death" featuring a certain Mr Swarbrick on fiddle. In the album notes Bert says how he's known Dave since the Ian Campbell Folk Group days but had never played with him until he sent Bert an email saying 'we should do some recording before one of us pops off'.
Was this after the obituary incident and did it make you contact anyone else to say let's do some recording?
