Liege and Lief

 


Fairport Convention is a British folk-rock band that formed in 1967.  One of the founding members is Richard Thompson, one of my favorite singer-songwriters.  

'Liege and Lief' is their third album, released in 1969.  It is also their last album to feature Sandy Denny, a woman whose life was destroyed by her demons.  In spite of those demons, her singing is a joy to listen to here.  








The full album can be found here and here.
