@grrrr_shark Thanks! I love that whole show. I saw RT in 1971 at the Lincoln Folk Festival in England and then not again till this year in New Jersey. Didn’t mean to wait so long!

@grrrr_shark @arush I’ve always loved Richard Thompson, but never heard this cover before. Thank you!!

@sbourne Isn't it? I found it years ago and something reminded me today and I just had to share.

I bought his "1000 Years of Popular Music" after that and it's a treat :)

@grrrr_shark I'll have to look for it! I got to see him perform live once - he opened for Bonny Raitt. It was a pretty magical evening. 🥰

@stevewfolds @KateOfMind Yeah, I bought the album shortly after seeing this a few years ago :)

@grrrr_shark @KateOfMind Also have the show on disk, Fairport Convention CDs & songbooks. Yet to watch 2023 Glastonbury Festival performance, past ones w/4-piece trio were fun.
