1970–Fairport Convention, Live

A thank-you to all the readers of this blog, here’s a musical present:
Some nice Brit-folk rock harmonizing from Fairport Convention, a group whose music I always enjoyed,  on albums  such as “Unhalfbricking”).  Today at Political Animal blogger Ed Kilgore has shared a song the group played live, sometime in 1970, perhaps at an outdoor festival. I never heard it until today. It’s called  “Now Be Thankful.” If you like them too, after the song concludes there’s a lot more of them playing their repertoire, on youtube. They changed personnel a lot, but always kept to a high level.
