Fairport Convention, A lasting Spirit - The Collection

UK (3CD) Sanctuary Rec.  SMETD190 (2005)

Un triplo CD, la collezione dei Fairport si ingigantisce, di cui non si sa quanto si sentisse la necessità. Gran parte del materiale è tratto dall'esibizione live di Cropredy del 1997. Comunque la confezione e le note del booklet, di Kingsley Abbott (autore anche del "fairportfolio"), s presentano bene. A Joss Mullinger si devono le fotografie tratte dai festival annuali di Cropredy.
