Subject: Review: MacColl/Seeger Australian Album From: Jim Carroll Date: 07 Jul 20 - 02:19 AM Wonder if anybody can help with a request from a friend seeking information for an article I'm looking or background information and, if possible, a copy of the sleeve notes of an Album Ewan and Peggy made while they were in Australia; 'No Thyme Like the Present' I tried once before but drew a blank Help would be appreciated Thanks Jim |

Subject: RE: Review: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Reinhard Date: 07 Jul 20 - 07:43 AM I've typed up the album details for No Tyme Lyke the Present from the above-mentioned eBay auction's photo. Even though it's an Australian release it was recorded at Decca Studios in the UK in 1976. Besides Ewan and Peggy, Calum and Neill MacColl, Alan Prosser and Ian Telfer were involved. |
Subject: RE: Review: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 07 Jul 20 - 08:03 AM oops, there is a little typo Ewan NacColl & Peggy Seeger: No Tyme Lyke the Present |
Subject: RE: Review: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Reinhard Date: 07 Jul 20 - 08:10 AM Sorry! fixed... |
Subject: RE: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 07 Jul 20 - 10:13 AM I'm expanding captions on a blog & strangely enough, I had previously made some typos! sandra (picky proofreader) |
Subject: RE: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Stewie Date: 09 Jul 20 - 10:20 PM I have a copy in my collection. It cost me $6.99 - the price sticker is still on the cover. The price of vinyl LPs has gone through the roof these days --Stewie. |
Subject: RE: MacColl Seeger Australian Album From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 09 Jul 20 - 11:47 PM thread drift - I have a used (rare) Australian LP I paid $1 for in the 70s (I liked its pretty cover which is why I bought it & ended up loving the songs, too) which is apparently worth several hundred today. A pristine copy of the same album was worth $1500 in the late 90s, & a pristine copy sold for over $4000 a few years ago. (Hush by Extradition) |
