Fairport Convention – “Angel Delight” (18)

July 13, 2012 · listentomusicanywhere

This makes 5 in a row, for the first time ever, I think!  All change after today, though, I really don’t know when I’ll next be able to post anything.

Anyway, finishing off today Simon Nicol’s witty notes on the tracks, which kick off his more general notes in the insert for the expanded CD.

“9 The Bonny Black Hare

(Trad arr:Lloyd)

Learnt by Swarb from A.L.Lloyd from an LP of bawdy folk songs, we stayed quite close to the structure of the original but with some quite tasty percussion and drone effects.  Always got lots of requests for this one from the Testosterone-charged college types.

10 Sickness & Diseases

(Swarbrick/Thompson)

With its dire warnings of the perils of STDs, programming this after the celebration of casual encounters in the previous tracks was easy…”

There is one further note on the single bonus track, but that is set out almost ad nauseam in at least one post above.

Not adieu, but au revoir!
