FAIRPORT CONVENTION

"UNHALFBRICKING"

 12" LP VINYL ALBUM

The trajectory that Fairport Convention took in the space of four albums and two years is one of the most remarkable in British popular music.

Ian Matthews left the group during Unhalfbricking, and they decided not to replace him. The album was recorded between January and April 1969 and shows the band gaining confidence. 

The material is strong, and their covers of three Bob Dylan songs (including material from the then-bootleg The Basement Tapes) yielded a Top 30 UK hit single, Si Ti Dois Partir – a cover of If You Gotta Go, Go Now, sung in French. Sandy Denny contributes her keynote song Who Knows Where The Time Goes, and most remarkable of all is A Sailor's Life, a traditional folk song arranged by Simon Nicol and Richard Thompson. The ballad builds over 11 minutes into a full-on wig-out with a guest performance by Dave Swarbrick on fiddle.

This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1969 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl.
