Thought I'd seeded all of the 1970-71 Fairport shows that I had which weren't already up on DIME before Christmas. I turned out to be wrong. There's also an RT-less show from the Angel Delight band from Cleveland that I'll seed in the next day or 2, along with a 1972 and 1976 show. These will be all of the Swarb era FC that I have which isn't already up on DIME.
This London show is a listenable audience recording that doesn't sound too bad given the time period and equipment used. It's the Full House band with RT on board. I've also seen this listed as being from 5/14. If anyone knows for sure, please chime in.
Support the Fairports past and present by buying their officially released material and seeing them live.
