Fairport Convention - Live at My Father's Place 1974


Rating: 2/5

Review:
Ruined by dreadful sound quality

David Zenbid has summed this album up perfectly in the title of his review on Amazon: great songs, great singer, rubbish recording.

Frankly, there's not much more to say about this album. It's a terrible shame that such a fine voice and good band should be let down so badly by the sound quality and the balance, but they are. I'll be hanging on to my copy, but I doubt whether I'll play it much because it really isn't a pleasurable experience. I'm sorry to have to say this about an album featuring a truly great singer, but I'm afraid I can't recommend this.
