I haven't heard it yet! But I get really arsey when they let the dude sing. YOU'VE GOT SANDY DENNY IN YR BAND, COCKS
Yeah, haha. I did feel this way at times while listening to this, which reminded me of how I feel about early 70's Fleetwood Mac where I think the boys need to shut up and let Christine McVie sing all the time.

Ditto Amon Duul II. This might have made a good thread.

I adore the Strawbs version of WKWTTG. Some days I think I prefer it to the Fairports version, which I also adore, other days not.

I mean really you can say "what are the greatest musical things the UK has ever produced?" and you put the Beatles up there, and Sandy Denny's voice at #2. Right??? Right??????

... Trevor Lucas (looking even more like my ex brother-in-law than usual) gets to sing a song at the end.

Nothing More, the collected Fotheringay box set, has this (and a couple other video performances) and is essential.
