One of my earliest attempts at a tune in the 'melodic' style. This was recorded in 1974, with Bob Pett on mandolin and Bob Britton on guitar.

There's been some forum discussion recently about this song. Thought I'd post our version to add to the mix!

We worked really hard on this. Ian's arrangement was very demanding and pushed the band's abilities to the limit both vocally and instrumentally.

This was recorded in the late 1970s. This is 'Cross Country', a band in which I played thirty years ago! It's our arrangement of a wonderful old tune. I can't believe it's been thirty years.

From the 1970s. Another track by 'Cross Country'. I've always thought this a great song. I love the 'call and response' refrain. Apologies for the sound quality, the tape is now very old.
