Gordon McIntyre and Danny Spooner "Revived and Relieved" LP 1978

A great combination - Gordon McIntyre and Danny Spooner teaming up to produce this 1978 album. Unsurprisingly, six of the tracks are unaccompanied but others have some musical and vocal support from fellow artists, Tom Rummery, Kate Delaney, Roger Fisken, Mike Jackson and Steve Ellis - details on reverse of slip.

The tracks are a mix of British Isles and Australian traditional songs and tunes.

This is another of the offerings from the Victorian Bush Folkie. Once again, many thanks.

 Still a few glitches in some of the tracks but nothing likely to mar your listening pleasure.

Warren Fahey and the Larrikins "Billy of Tea" LP 1978

Another great LP from Ian of Tassie (and more yet to come).

This is a 1978 album. Warren Fahey provided vocals and his oft-changing group of Larrikins was then:-
Jacko Kevans - vocals, accordion and concertina.
Gordon McIntyre - vocals, guitar, dulcimer and tenor banjo.
Kate Delaney - vocals, whistle and bodhram.
Roger Fisken - fiddle and mandolin.
Steve Ellis - vocals, guitar and mandolin.

Most of the tracks are the Australian folk standards but there are a couple of exceptions including a New Zealand penned tribute to Captain Cook - and a good one too - a somewhat (now) politically incorrect traditional about chinese workers and the British Isles popular traditional "Jones' Ale" aka "When Jones' ale was new". All tracks performed at the expected high standard. There were some minor problems with the material and it cleaned up to a good degree but there are the occasional residual glitches but really nothing that will mar your listening pleasure.
