Our Take
Ah, Fairport Convention at the Philadelphia Folk Festival in 1970, what a trip down memory lane! This live album captures the band at the peak of their folk-rock prowess, delivering electrifying performances that transport you straight to a hazy summer day in the 70s. From the moment Richard Thompson's guitar kicks in on "Matty Groves," you know you're in for a wild ride. The energy is infectious, the harmonies are tight, and the musicianship is top-notch. Sandy Denny's haunting vocals on "Who Knows Where the Time Goes" will send shivers down your spine, while Dave Swarbrick's fiddle playing on "Sir Patrick Spens" is nothing short of mesmerising. But what really sets this album apart is the sense of camaraderie and joy that permeates every track. It's clear that Fairport Convention are having the time of their lives on stage, and their enthusiasm is impossible to resist. Even on the more sombre numbers, there's a sense of fun and playfulness that keeps you hooked from start to finish. So grab a pint of ale, kick back, and let Fairport Convention take you on a journey through the golden age of folk-rock. This album is a true gem, and a must-listen for any music lover looking to inject some joy and nostalgia into their playlist. Cheers to Fairport Convention for delivering an unforgettable performance at the Philadelphia Folk Festival in 1970!
