Hi ;o)

Seemingly the only place where there is a Ralph version (even including an oral introduction) to this fantastic song is on the great live album (a collection of live songs from various concerts) called "Songs for Six Strings - II" (1996, Leola Music).

If you liked Fairport Convention's version, you ain't heard nothing yet! And to think that he is doing this solo! This is one of my top favourite songs. You simply get it on your brain and find yourself going around humming it all the time. *LOL*. So be "WARNED"!

I just really wish I had been present when he first played it to the FC guys. I bet their jaws must have dropped to hit the floor. The Civil War battle that he describes in this amazing and "goose bump inducing" (well, for me at least) song took place at Cropredy at the bridge across the river Cheerwell, and since FC arranges a folk festival every year at.... Cropredy - well, there is your link ;o)
