Plastic Bertrand competed in the 1987 Eurovision Song Contest which was won by Johnny Logan who appeared on the Cropredy stage with Fairport in 2011 (?) easy peasy. |

Ah, the Johnny Logan year at Croppers - I did add a question mark after that though, what year did he play the Excalibur stuff? the link remains though. |

Johnny Logan won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1987 (the same year that Plastic Bertrand competed) this is the same Johnny Logan who appeared on stage during Fairport's epic Excalibur event in 2010 therefore David W is correct and so incidentally is Wiki !! Cheers Nigel |

Edith Piaf recorded with Charles Aznavour.
Years later, Charles Aznavour collaborated with Youssou N'Dour for a music video following the earthquake in Haiti.
Youssou N'Dour has sung with Peter Gabriel on numerous occassions.
Peter Gabriel played in Genesis with Phil Collins.
Phil Collins once played in Jethro Tull.
Jethro Tull has included a number of FC members.
That was tough.

Demis R is easy. He was in a band with Vangelis. Vangelis recorded with Jon Anderson Jon Anderson worked on the Excalibur project with FC. |

For Nana Mouskouri I am trying to find a Fairport to Justin Hayward link, as he recorded with Nana. That would of course be the Fairport to Moodies link, though there may be some Birmningham connection there as well
