Fairport Convention, In Real Time, LP UK Island Records (December 1987) -  ILPS 90678 1

The 1987 Cropredy concert celebrates the band's twentieth anniversary. The album is lively musically but not without flaws in relation to the recording and mixing by Stuart Epps. The artwork features black and white photos by Laurie Lewis; the use of wide angle lenses creates a suggestive theatrical effect, with the audience seeming to surround the stage.

Il concerto di Cropredy del 1987 celebra il ventennale del gruppo. L'album è vivace musicalmente ma non esente da difetti relativamente alla registrazione e al missaggio di Stuart Epps. La grafica presenta foto in B/N di Laurie Lewis; l'uso del grandangolo crea un suggestivo effetto teatrale, con il pubblico che sembra circondare il palcoscenico.
