GUEST,Wayne	steeleye span, fairport convention (20)	RE: steeleye span, fairport convention	14 Dec 07
Both brilliant. Fairport more consistent, Steeleye more flashes of genius. In all the years they've been playing they've released one duff album each (Fairport: Over the Next Hill, Steeleye: Back In Line)and too many classic ones to choose favourites. Both have a severely underrated period: Fairport's Tipplers/Bonny Bunch & Steeleye's Mike Batt years; and both are still magnifcent live and making strong cds. Very few folk-rock bands, in recent years have come close to matching their sheer magic (only Clarion, Duncan McFarlane Band, Tempest and Korpiklaani spring to mind.) Long may they continue!
