Capstick Does a Turn, Rubber Records LP

Live club recording from Barnsley, gives a good idea why TC was so popular, and includes some of his anecdotes.

Song tracks as follows:
The Dolphin, Seeds of Love, Moving on Song, The Coat She Wore, If I Had a Boat, Casey's Last Ride, The Scarecrow, Red Wine and Promises, They Don't Write 'em Like That Any More.

Songs of Ewan MacColl, LP Label not known, Dave Burland, Tony Capstick, Dick Gaughan

Some solo tracks, supporting on some of the other tracks. Capstick vocally on top form, Burland possibly slightly overshadowed by him, which I would not see as normally the case, Gaughan fine, and easier to comprehend than on some of his other recordings. Well worth seeking out, not a bad track on it.

Track List (Capstick tracks marked*)
Ballad of Accounting*, Moving on Song, Jamie Foyers, Freeborn Man*, Manchester Rambler, Schooldays End, Thirty Foot Trailer, Big Hewer*, First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, Sweet Thames Flow Softly, Shoals of Herring.
