I was working away a lot when he was on the circuit and missed him locally so I never got to see him. All my knowledge of him is from radio and recordings.
Beautifully done and a big thanks to the lad on the guitar as well. A big job to carry off and he did it superbly.
If he can do one song this well he can do a CD even if it takes a year to do & we will buy it, the folk world wants this. If you read this Nic - then do it!
Absolutely fantastic to see this and to hear Nic sing again after thirty years. Every festival should headline him next year. They would all sell out. Its a privileged to have all his vinyl albums right next to me.
It was a privilege to be in the audience on the night. I had never seen Nic in performance in the early days, and never thought that I would. To be in an audience that was emotionally charged, and to see and hear this performance, and marvel at the phrasing and delivery was quite something. Goosebump time.
So moving. The whole place was spellbound. I consider it an honour and a pleasure to have been there. Just amazing. I hope Nic considers performing a few more concerts and maybe some more recording. Thanks to Stewart Lee for organising it too.
A really amazing night, was great to finally get the chance to see Nic sing! Grew up listening to his albums but never thought i would actually hear him live!
I've watched this three times and have yet to get through it without choking up. What a moving moment! Thank you so much for posting this so that Nic's many fans from far away have chance to share this very special memory.
I wanted to travel from Australia to see Nic in concert but this is second best! Thank you for uploading and thank you Nic for having the courage to sing again. You sing beautifully as you always have. Wow, never thought I would ever see this. Wonderful!
I never thought to see this. It was a joy just to see Nic sat on stage with Martin Carthy and Pete Coe and then with Bandoggs but this was amazing and yes the tears came.
i am so happy to see this incredible clip. Wish we could have been there.... correct me if I am wrong but this now becomes the only live clip of Nic on youtube?
@jacobsladder72 Solo, yes, I believe so. :) But there is another video where he is singing with two others in someones living room, which I believe is from somewhere in the last few years.
Wow, it is so great to hear and see Nic sing again. And boy, he can still sing! What a treat, and apparently it was performed on the same date as my birthday, which makes it even more perfect! :)
how great to see this !

I well remember going to see Nic as a frequent and much loved guest at the Hoy and Helmet Folk Club at Benfleet in Essex back in the early 1970s.
Great to hear that voice again, thanks for posting.

Oh, happy memories. Damn, he still sings well - maybe even better than before. And who needs a guitar when you have a son to play it for you?!

Scarcely a dry eye in the QEH - and listen to that phrasing. Bandoggs were great too - well done Pete, Chris, Johnny Damien and of course Nic.

Exquisite - thank you so much for catching that - it's my foot (white trainers) tapping away behind Nic so it's even better to see it from the front.
