This Christmas , Santa brought this not so technical TAW:er a new technical device, that enables the transfer of the old colour slides into photos on the computer So the transferring has begun and among the boxes containing almost 20 years of slide photos are several from concerts over the years.Maybe a few of these could be of interest here. I start off with a couple from Cropredy 1977. I've tried to take them down in format, so I hope they'll be easy to watch.
Enjoy!

Lovely, thankyou! Very evocative  (Personally I'd be happy to see them bigger, but that may not be appropriate...  ) Any more would be great to see. Thanks again  |

Unfortunately I wasn't. But your question brings to my mind how difficult it was to get to know about a thing like Fairport Convention playing at a garden fete in Cropredy, when living i Sweden and only having MM, Folk News and a couple of other magazines to rely on (No internet or homepages then,youngsters! ) I think I saw a small notice in either, just as I took a week's charter trip to London, and when there, on the day of the gig, on chance took a train to Banbury, walked to Cropredy ( if I remember correctly, I´ve done that once..) and then asked my way around. My biggest fear was that I wasn't gonna get in!! The - "-Sorry, all tickets sold in advance!" - nightmare, so I hung on to the entrance pole, or how I should describe it, and was the first to get in. How lucky I was! There's much more to that story, but it'll have to wait til some other time... Well, the slides What I know I have are good ones from the 81 warm-up gigs at the Half Moon, a few Broughton Castle and different 80´s gigs here and there... Here, the feel of the garden fete and a -then- longhaired bass player whisking away the hair [attachment deleted by admin] |

Here are a couple from what I´ve always thought was one of the warm-up gigs at The Half Moon, 1981. The slides are dated by me as being taken in August 1981 but when I miss RT in the pictures and I look at the setlist from the 10th, where there are at least five Thompson tracks, I´m getting a bit unsure of wherefrom these photos are.Maybe I´ve forgotten we went to The Half Moon for two concerts, one with the Full-House-lineup and one with the late 70´s 4-piece. I´ll have to keep brooding! If anyone can nail date and venue, please let me know. After all I´m a librarian! I want to get things right!!  [attachment deleted by admin] |
