Sandy Denny’s sublime vocals, Swarbrick’s violin, Thompson’s guitar…what’s not to like? Stand out tracks for me “Matty Groves” and “The Deserter” -
just listening to my 1969 ILPS 9115 vinyl copy ... the vinyl plays perfect, 50 years on. Liege and Leif is still one of my top 5 favourite albums of all time. What a fabulous band. -
Edited 6 years agoMy LP matches the first issue ILPS 9115, (https://www.discogs.sie.com/Fairport-Convention-Liege-Lief/release/2024570) in every respect, except that the label shows the catalog number as ILPS 9115 A and ILPS 9115 B, does not have the witch logo or the names of the publishers. -
