This appears to be the Angel Delight era Fairports after the departure of Richard Thompson. Material from the Full House and Angel Delight albums with Matty from Liege and Lief. Not sure if Bonnie Kate ever made it on to a FC release.
Sound is quite decent given the age of the equipment used to first record it.
Not much early Fairport still up on DIME. I have the 1970-06-11 Fillmore Early show; the Philadelphia Folk Fest show from 1970-08-30; and an undated Zurich show from 1970. If anyone wants any of those seeded, please indicate that in the comments and I'll try to get them done.
Please support all current and past members of Fairport by purchasing their commercially released output, and by going to see them live. Hoping to hear some 2014 Spring Tour shows here soon.
