I've said it before and I'll say it again (and again and again and...!!), I'd love to see a reunion of Robin and Barry Dransfield but I don't suppose there's even the slightest chance of that now.

There's a name from the past. I have got the classic "Dransfield - The Fiddler's Dream" album. Does anyone know what happened to R & B Dransfield?

Barry Gibb

The Bee Gees are some of the top song writers of all time. If the field could dance along (and it did!) to Freak Out and Material Girl, they’d definitely dance to Stayin’ Alive and You Should Be Dancing  Cool I know I would!

This is only slightly tongue-in-cheek…  Wink

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...

I'd love to see Dawes on that stage.  Not sure if they ever play outside the US though.  I'd also like the reunited Long Ryders.

Rhiannon Giddens is an amazing purveyor of folk and roots music. Her 2023-2024 tour concludes in Austin next May and we'll be there. She's free in August.

Time is a funny thing. I was thinking he’d played the Legends spot at Glastonbury recently - turns out it was 2017! Anyway, he won’t be at Cropredy…

Saw them at Shrewsbury a few years ago and they have also backed Conor Oberst on a UK tour.

I think John Fogerty ( of CCR fame)   would go down well at Cropredy.  Tours frequently and very good show.

I would quite look forward to that!!  Real protest band during the Vietnam war years ....
There is a band doing  a tour at the moment I saw at the GBFF at Skegness ....2016 I think called Clearwater Creedence Revival, a bunch of guys from Yorkshire. They were Excellent. Brought the house down. Would highly recommend...booked for the Lowther Pavillion in Lytham 27th of this month. Certainly looking forward to that and reliving memories of the late 60's when we were were all much younger and better looking 😁😁🤣😂🤣😂

There's a band from Leeds called Creedence Clearwater Revival Revival. Are they who you're thinking of? If so, I'll second your opinion. They put on a terrific show.

Surely there must be a tribute band by now called Not the Hoople.

I did hear a rumour that Mott were replaced by Brian Wilson late on. Cant back it up at all, it was from an overheard conversation at the car boot.

I saw The Magpie Arc, featuring Martin Simpson, Nancy Kerr and Findlay Napier at FolkEast last weekend. Proper rollicking folk rock - they'd go down a storm at Cropredy, I think.

Yes please

The Mutter Slater Band would be good early day fare on any day of the festival.
