RENAISSANCE - Widdicombe Fair Pre- Annie Haslam

Renaissance was the band formed by Jim McCarthy and Keith Relf following the split of the Yardbirds in 1968. The band recorded their first album the self titled Renaissance album in 1969. Following the album's release the band embarked on a series of live dates in Europe and America. In 1970 they also began recording their second album Illusion which received a limited release in Europe in early 1971. By the time the album was released the band had become so fragmented that none of the original members were left in the band! Renaissance would however continue with various line ups until stabilising in the early seventies with the line up that would go on to massive critical and commercial success led by vocalist Annie Haslam.

So this lineup includes 3 with Nashville Teens connections - Crowe, Dunford & Korner. Coincidentally, Nashville Teens recorded a fine version of this song themselves.
