I'd only ever heard Tony Capstick via that great McColl album with Dave Burland and Dick Gaughan until I found these. What a magnificent soaring voice. Thank you for putting these on. I just wish there was more...

@andymac1063 Thank you so much andy for your words, its so good for Tony to be remembered for what he was best at. I recently played a festival in Bakewell and dedicated a song to him, so the spirit lives on, and I'm sure other performers poke his name in inbetween song banter! a great album this was, I do intend to put some more stuff on but sadly very little video exists of him singing and what there is is owned by ch4. Thanks again.

Great stuff, Andy ;-)

Keep it up.

[pinknblues1]

Hiya Elven! Good to hear from you!!

[CarthyOnline]

Thanks for this. You didn't mention the song title, which is "Red Wine and Promises". It was written by Lal Waterson but sung by Norma Waterson (still is now and again if you're lucky enough to catch her live).

[pinknblues1]

Ah cheers!Must admit I had forgotten title though I'd heard Tony sing this a zillion times as well as other songs by Lal.  Glad to have found your site will keep looking in Take care!
