Book the signing table at Cropredy perhaps? Or a Fairport friendly bookshop - Jaffe & Neale in Chipping Norton (they very kindly hosted a great session for me in 2005).

Not sure this has been plugged yet..... Judy Dyble and the Band of Perfect Strangers + Jackie McAuley and FriendsHalf Moon - Putney, London Sunday 21 August 20:00 £10adv/ £12 door I've a big clash with Folk East....going to have to juggle big time to make this.....   Guess there's likely to be a Trader Horne set too?..... http://www.musicglue.com/half-moon-putney/events/21-aug-16-judy-dyble-and-the-band-of-perfect-strangers-half-moon--putney/
Judy's past career has been eclectic. From being one of the original founding members of the extraordinary UK folk/rock band 'Fairport Convention', after the first and rockiest of their albums, she left to join with fellow London based musician, and later founder member of Foreigner, Ian McDonald which resulted in a collaboration with the musicians who later collectively became King Crimson – Robert Fripp, Peter and Mike Giles.
Line up
Judy Dyble and the Band of Perfect Strangers
After recording a few songs with them which later surfaced as ‘The Brondesbury Tapes’, she became one half of the stunning, if short lived duo Trader Horne, whose eponymous (and only) LP 'Morning Way' is still considered to be a classic of its day.
After a short, but jolly collaboration with Lol Coxhill and Canterbury musicians Steve and Phil Miller as DC & the MBs, Judy promptly retired to raise a family, until 30 years later she returned to music to create new music in a way that hadn’t even been dreamed of in 1970. The internet had arrived in the intervening years and with it the ability to record remotely and seamlessly weave contributions from everywhere into a beautiful tapestry of songs. Thus ‘Talking With Strangers’ was born in 2009, ‘Flow and Change’ released in 2013, and ‘Live at WMJazz’ in 2014 and ‘Gathering The Threads’ her Anthology of odd music from 50 years in 2015. The duo Trader Horne reunited in Nov 2015 with a brilliantly received one off performance of ‘Morning Way’ at Bush Hall in London. She has since finished writing her autobiography, ‘An Accidental Musician’ published in May 2016 by Soundcheck Books.
Tonight Judy and her Band of Perfect Strangers will be supported by the other half of the Trader Horne duo, Jackie McAuley and friends which includes his brother Brendan McAuley, the master of the Uillean pipes, who will play a brilliant acoustic set.
‘Her cut-glass diction and delicate voice gives emphasis and clarity to lyrics that elegantly describe nature's mutability and portents therein’ - Sid Smith.
‘once the lady begins to weave her spell, we're taken to another place entirely’.- Grant Moon
‘Judy Dyble is real and rare a practitioner strain of English Magic Music’.. ‘Beautiful and needed now more than ever’ –Gavin Martin
‘Judy's special, thought-provoking music is a contemplation of what it means to be human; an awareness of life receding; a reminder of the heartlessness at the heart of existence’ -Lesley Ann Jones
‘Judy Dyble is an artist who is very much at the peak of her powers now’ –Oz Hardwicke
‘her haunting, often time-stopping voice’..-Kris Needs
Jackie McAuley and Friends
Guitarist and keyboard player Jackie McAuley has had one of the most varied and creative careers of any of the great musicians who emerged from Belfast in the 60s. And currently he is on a roll, with the formation of a new band.
As an original member of Them he recorded and toured with Van Morrison behind legendary hit records like ‘Baby Please Don’t Go’ ‘Here Comes The Night’ and “Gloria” sharing stages with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and others. During his time with 'Them' in London he hung out with Legendary Rocker Gene Vincent. "It was Gene who convinced me to write my own songs"...Later when Van Morrison went solo McAuley joined Paul Brady in Dublin band The Kult. It was also in Dublin where he met and became lifelong friends with ace guitarist Henry McCullough.
As leader of The Belfast Gypsies he recorded an album, Them Belfast Gypsies, produced by infamous L.A. scene-maker Kim Fowley, which has been hailed as one of the rawest and most powerful to emerge during the 60S blues boom.
McAuley’s psych-folk duo Trader Horne, with ex-Fairport Convention singer Judy Dyble, only released one album, Morning Way, in 1970, but the album, much played by John Peel at the time, has, astonishingly, been reissued at least seven times since.
