A story from Dave Bland who worked both for the EFDSS and for Bill Leader when he had his recording studio in Cecil Sharp House:-

Bill had worked meticulously to improve the quality of the recordings by Joseph Taylor and the other Brigg singers before releasing them on the Unto Brigg Fair LP in 1972. The sound quality of the album still sounded much less than we expect from later recordings. Bill posted a copy to the University of Melbourne where the complete Percy Grainger archives were kept. They sent a letter of thanks but added that it was a pity that Bill hadn't contacted them before starting out on this project as they had a complete unplayed set of the Grainger/Brigg 78s.
