We walked here along the beach from Formby. There was huge game of football going on when we arrived. I think Martin Carthy was in goal. They turned the power off after the broadcast finished. We wanted it to go on all night.

Amazing. This song has long been a favorite of mine. The video clip is gold!

There is something so distinctive about Prior's voice--I just have never heard anything like it: powerful and shrill in the best way. Listening to some Span albums, I had never imagined her smiling so much while she was singing! Also, I love the outfits.

Though I cannot dance, I would dance with Maddy any time.

Wow, what a great clip. I have LOVED Steeleye for over 30 years, and always wondered what it must have been like to see them in their prime. Sure wish they would tour California. Thanks for posting this! And yes, the Tele and Fender stacks are fun to see, as well as the coiled bass cable. It's a time capsule.

fantastic time to be alive, to be able to see and hear span from this time, each member is brilliant in their own right and went on to do great things, Ashley...morris on, Martin married Norma Waterson, the rest stayed in the band for many years and have brought me much joy.RIP Tim, love to you all and sirpatrickspens for posting this, cheers.
