I dug out this old LP the other day, what a great album! That version of My Lady's Coach is so atmospheric. I've never heard anyone else tackle that song. Did the group record anything else?

Yup I've got the same vinyl LP, and as far as I know this was the only album they made.   Shame.   

While students tried to make a film using their "Green Lady" as soundtrack. Besideas a series of other disasters, the emulsion started to disintegrate after 6 months. Wierd or what?

We had the LP. but it got warped - the only one that ever did! Fortunately, the song is on the 'Dead Maid's Land' CD, for which Paul Wilson of Staverton Bridge was the musical director. It is indeed a powerful song.

I think TISH STUBBS of SB also made another album in mid - late 70s

It’s a shame this album is so rare—on the other hand, there is streaming for it, for better and for worse! I’ve seen that it is available via Youtube and Spotify. So just about anyone can now listen to it, including myself who’d never have heard it otherwise.

I knew Sam and Tish in the 80s they recorderd on one of my vinyl lps, they split up as a couple in the late 1980s, at that point staverton bridge had not existed for 5 or 6 years.
Sam was a very accomplished musician,Tish was the main singer
