Fairport Convention, A.T.2 / The Boot 

 

UK (4-CD) Woodworm Records WR4CD 034 (May 2000)

 

Questi 4 rari e magnifici CD sono stati prodotti da Dave Pegg negli studi della Woodworm e ripropongono i concerti live di Cropredy, relativi agli anni 1982 e 1983. E' sorprendente la qualità della registrazione se si considera che il fonico Mark Powell ha utilizzato due microfoni ambientali Revox. Bella la confezione e il booklet concepiti da Mick Toole.
