Fairport Convention - Liege & Lief

The eight-minute masterpiece Matty Groves built On A Sailor's Life and gave Fairport another long-lasting anthem. By the time the album was released, Sandy Denny and Ashley Hutchings had both left the group, and another chapter was to begin. Fairport Convention are still playing to this very day, still with original member Simon Nicol in the line-up. Their annual Cropredy Festival has become a reassuring landmark in the UK concert calendar – and many of these songs here feature in their set today.

This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1969 Island Records UK release with gatefold sleeve and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl.
