Cocker's one of the very worst performers i have ever seen and alongside "Family" the most unprofessional I'll ignore that remark, Campbell. I saw Joe Cocker at the Hammersmith Odeon at the time of "Up Where We Belong". Absolutely sensational. Great, great band too. Apart from bringing the house down with "A Little Help..." he also did that song called something like "I'm So Glad I'm Still Standing Here Today.." Wonderful, wonderful night. No, I'm not on the wagon by the way but I could do some hip hop if you like?

Just been listening to the Waterboys on the Cerys show on 6 Music.
A definite for Cropredy. Really, really good stuff.

how about the Urban Folk Quartet? This new band has all the rock and funky folky influences to go down great with Fairport fans and Joe Broughton is bound to put in some blistering fiddle tunes to really get the crowd going! Plus it's something really new...
An admission here that I know the band so am biased but I think if you saw them live you'd see what I mean!
I also think Jack McNeil and Charlie Heys would be brilliant floating across a Cropredy sunny afternoon field...

Having seen them the other night, I'm going to put in a shout for Johnny Flynn & the Sussex Wit. Great music, played with real fire.
I'll second that UFQ suggestion as well. That'd be great.

After seeing some band or other at the Robin, I was on the way out of the door when the dj played a Family tune which I thought was great.It wasn't the Weaver's Answer, but a laid back psychedelic type thing.I know this is a bit vague (and off topic) but do any of you Family fan types have any suggestions of what it may possibly might have been?

I was at Union Chapel in north London last night to see Ian Hunter do an accoustic set with his regular band and a string quartet- and a thought came in my head that this would be great for Cropredy.
