  • Hello there,

    I am from South Africa, an old hippie from the 60's, over 60 now, and a legal consultant in the Middle East with hair a little longer than yours.

    Your version brought it all back, but this time it included tears.

    Thanks, and keep up the good work.

  • Your voice is perfect for the song. I actually prefer your cover to the original - it sounds great in this stripped-down style.

  • excellent job!! ive tried to play this with the chords i found on the net and am not real satisfied. Are you using a capo and what chords are you starting with??? thanky and howzabout more Sandy Dennyage??!!

  • your description says 'late great fairport convention'.

    fairport are not dead, i went to see them in birmingham on the 29th feb 2008, and they have the british acoustic festival coming up with Jethro tull and of course cropredy.

    fairport are very much alive and kicking, and you did a really good job, by the way.

  • but who can forget the bbc's gr8est cock up in declaring Swarbrick as dead. He had to request a correction..... but sadly he aint with them nemore neway.....and Ric, well he incredible

  • cheers man

  • Well done! I had the original album in my college days (yes, i'm very old!) and was holding my breathe in case you ruined one of my favourite songs ever! Perfect voice for this song - very similar to the original. I hope you keep up your music-making.

  • Thanks a lot man!
