Your Wednesday Moment of Words Fail Me
From 1969, Fairport Convention covering Dylan's "Percy's Song." If you've never heard this, listen to it immediately, as your life is the poorer without it.
You know, kids -- there are some days I think this is the greatest Dylan cover ever. Today is one of those days.
An amazing recording. Ian and Sandy sing like angels, avenging angels.

My fave Fairport tune. I could listen to an eternal loop of "turn, turn again."
ReplyDeleteLove that one and also Si Tu Dois Partir.

The cover photo has a story behind it that I've forgotten. Anyone?
ReplyDeleteIt’s some band members parents?
