I know they were around in 1980.

Around 1980, when I lived in Dubai, the (Liverpool) Spinners visited, to play at Dubai Country Club. (Other guests around this time at the club included Julie Felix and a comedian called Billy Connolly - we missed both because we were on holiday both times)

We were invited to take part in a lunchtime session at the Dubai Marine Hotel ,where they were staying, during which my son (aged 1) was sitting on Cliff's knee, and one of the other members went back to his room, got a Video recorder and recorded my medley of Morris tunes (played rather badly).

Anyone know what happened to the miles of film shot by 'Peter the Red' in Sidmouth in the 70s - and perhaps earlier?
He used to get around the festival on a mini motorbike and seemed to film everything in sight. I don't think he only covered the dance side of things but I may be mistaken.

All the Peter the Red films went to JKL Video in Sidmouth and were put onto video and available for purchase. JKL Video has now closed, following the (semi) retirmement of the owner. I have been in discussion with him about what happens to all his videos - Peter the Red archive and JKL's own videos.
There are copies of the Peter the Red videos in the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library.

Pavane - I think that video cameras were probably more common in Dubai than here at that time - it's the kind of place where disposable incomes are pretty high. I remember how prevalent the old brick type mobile phones were when almost no-one outside of the investment bankers in Britain had them.

I'd LOVE to be proved wrong, though - never having seen the man play live, a video clip would be a wondrous thing.

I've searched high & low for film/video footage of Nic & The Halliard, all to no avail.Back in the 60s/early 70s there were an increasing number of 8mm & super8mm film cameras around, but IMHO,it's got less to do with hardware availability & much more to do with the impact of the 'digital revolution' & attitudes in society. Now it's so easy to film/video/record almost any performance (legally AND illegally!). The results can be viewed instantly, you can more or less edit as you go. Back when we were performing, capturing good moving images was a much more serious undertaking, left largely to the pro's and a small group of dedicated amateurs, none of whom sadly, ever pointed a camera at us!

The link no longer goes directly to the clip but only to YouTube after which you might still get to it via a search. I asked Mudcat to remove it and this is the best they could do.

It won't be on YouTube at all for much longer as Google have been requested to remove it from their site altogether as the filming and uploading were unauthorised and thus a breach of copyright. I didn't know this when posting the original link.

Have a look at Nic's MySpace page instead which is maintained by his daughter Helen:

JKL video certainly seemed to film anything that moved, while Peter the Red had certain preferences. There is a very young Damien Barber in the Theatre Bar as I remember.
Just a point though Ralfie, what would be the reaction if someone turned a video camera towards the musicians in the Radway? There are several faces we would all love to see again, but no-one is ever keen to be filmed. As a balance I should point out that the same would probably be true of The Anchor.

Of the 8 John Peel sessions that Nic recorded between 1972 and 1977 very few survived.

Whilst working on the Unearthed project, here is a list of what I "Unearthed"!

28-10-1974
Bonny Banks of Fordie (Off Air)

14-10-1975
Bonny George Campbell (Off Air)
The Wanton Seed (Off Air)
The Lakes of Shilin Off Air)

08-07-76
Billy, don't you weep for me
Annachie Gordon
Ten Thousand Miles
My Grandfather Knew the Plough

19-04-1977
William Glen
Annachie Gordon
Rose of Allandale

As far as I know, The 76/77 sessions still exist in the BBC archive, but as the only track not to appear elsewhere is "Grandfather" I doubt that they will ever see the light of day.

Hope that helps

Hi Dick, Can't really answer re sale figures of "Unearthed" but I'm sure a quick E Mail to Julia Jones at Mollie Music would get the info for you. After all, I doubt if it's a state secret! and as it's producer, I would be intrigued to find out myself.
As far as video is concerned, an indepent TV producer is working on an hour long documentary on Nics life, due to be aired on the BBC in the spring. It includes some old footage of Nic playing, but, mainly concentrates on Nics performances this year with his son Joe (guitar) and Belinda O'Hooley (Keys/accordian) More news to follow.

Hi Dick.....Quick update, Julia fell off a ladder in her loft at the weekend, and broke her back. She's OK but confined to a hospital bed dosed up with morphine, so, won't be doing much in the way of E Mailing for the next few weeks. I'm sure that all her friends wish her a speedy recovery. It does mean that Nic is now in charge of the kitchen....Maybe not such a good idea!

As we're talking about Julia's accident, here is part of a message Helen Jones (Nic & Julia's daughter) sent to me. I reproduce it with her permission:

" Mum is doing well at the mo, She had an op on her wrist yesterday to pin it in place. Her back is causing her the most pain though. She fractured her lumbar spine (L2 to be exact) and her pelvis in two places. They are wanting to get her mobile as soon as possible so they are going to try and get her out of bed today. I'm not sure they'll succeed to be honest as all the pain relief from the op would have worn off. Anyway hopefully she won't be in hospital too long if they can get us some home help to come in and help her wash and dress and stuff. Other than that, Dad is doing a really good job at home and I've got to go back to work but we are managing fine between us and have some great neighbours who have offered Dad lifts to hospital and shops etc."

A few years back now in this thread, Doc Rowe mentioned that some film existed of Nic in the Topic recording studio for a BBC documentary "The Other Music" [produced by Philip Donnellan and transmitted in 1981]

Although I have not found a source for that film, a couple of very brief snippets of what appear to be the same footage appear here, at 0:0:11 and 0:1:37...
The Nic Jones story: a voice as unique as his guitar style - apparently a trailer for the c. 2012 "Enigma of Nic Jones" documentary by Michael Proudfoot, this trailer uploaded to YouTube in 2018. (The full documentary is available on DVD from Mollie Music, but unfortunately does not ship to Australia...)

If you then repeat the qury with quotes around the search term - i.e. "Nic Jones" as opposed to just Nic Jones - you also get 12 results, but some are different (and useful additions!). Makes me wonder whether the search result is stopping at 12 items, and maybe there are more as well that have not been returned (testing stopped there!!).

And if you just do a plain google search for "youtube" "nic jones" you get about 25 youtube hits (more than using youtube's own search function). Many/most are audio only of course.

Somehow this excellently filmed performance has not been individually mentioned on this thread - although has apparently been on YouTube since 2015...

Nic & Joe Jones - Legendary duo live at the Ryburn Folk Club

1 hr 40 mins of 2015-vintage Nic in a club performance with son Joe on guitar. Well worth a visit for the fans of NJ out there.

ChrisB - a guy called Geoff Gough has sent me 3.5GB of files mainly recordings from the Beeb. The moot point is where to upload them to.

The folders are:

* 1979-08-09 Sidmouth 4 songs BBC R2 165c

Barrack Street / Hamburger Polka /
Farewell To The Gold / Swimming Song

*1980-04-02 Birmingham audience tape

The Old House at Home, Lawnswood Ave, Birmingham I've only just dubbed my cassette this week. It's surprisingly
listenable for an audience tape, so I've kept it at flac level.

Unknown 1st or 2nd gen tape > Sony BHF 90 > wave > flac

(This recording would probably benefit from skilled adjustment of performer/audience recording levels, but I have made no attempts myself).

* 1980-04-02 Harbourne (entitled "Live at Harbourne")

The Old House at Home, Lawnswood Ave, Harbourne, Birmingham I found these files at the end of the week and I include them as an alternate to the cassette. I don't know the source so I can't give you lineage. I would say that maybe these sound a little better. Whether is taken from the same tape or from another I'm afraid my ears are not good enough to tell.

* 1980-05-20 RD & Friends

Barrack Street / Farewell to the Gold / I still remember what was on the jukebox / Thanksgiving

* 1980-08 Sidmouth one song indexed as 2011-05-18 Folk on 2 inc N Jones

Bonny Light Horseman from Sidmouth 1980

* 1980-11-17 BBC Radio 2

Humpback Whale / Jukebox when she turned / Thanksgiving

* 1981 BBC

8 songs - no sources - received in 2016 but no further documentation

* 1981 Knaresborough Folk Club
Audience tape - mp3 source
Tracks are in the order they were on the CD I received.
This may not be the order in which the songs were performed.

* 1981-03-15 RD & Friends

canadee-i-o / icarus / petronella / jukebox when she turns

* 1981-09-x-07 radio 2 City University 135c

barrack street / humpback whale / farewell to the gold

* 1981-12-17 Teatro Bonci, Cesena, Forlì,

originally from Dime - but only available as mp3 from me I'm afraid

* 1982-01-18 radio 2

seven gypsies / icarus / petronella

* 1997 Folk on 2 Interview

No one has downloaded anything via FileConvoy. So I guess no one is interested.
There are 5 more uploads pending, but don’t bother now.
