  • The rare full-length performance of Byker Hill by Martin Carthy and Dave Swarbrick live on 'Once More With Felix', BBC Two, December 16 1967. They are then joined by Julie Felix for a version of Gordon Lightfoot's song Early Morning Rain.
    This video was originally on another channel which has sadly been taken down altogether by CZcams. I'm only putting it up here now because of that very unfortunate event, as it definitely deserves to be seen, but I claim no credit for it.

    Gordon Lightfoot’s “Early Morning Rain” is one of my favourites, but it is a sad song and has been jollied-up too much here.

    Delightful. A fine looking lady singing smilingly, unpretentiously, with unrestrained fulness of voice; just seemingly being herself and enjoying every moment of it.

    Simply wonderful to see the lovely Julie Felix and then Dave and Martin, just as we want to remember them - in their prime and never to age. What joy they brought us and now blessed we are to have known their music. When they are joined by Julie we are reminded of the beauty of her voice - as was the norm in those days, just sung straight with a purity now lost in an age of absurd and incoherent vocal histrionics.

    What a charming young lady and talented too. Bob Dylan tipped me off to Martin Carthy. You could live several lifetimes and need never stop learning about and discovering new music.

    RIP Julie. I first heard heard her as a 5 year old in the mid-60s, my dad was obsessed. She may well have been the first singer I knew by name. Her version of Masters Of War used to scare me rigid, I remember that. I always asked my father to skip it when he played the LP when I was in the room.

    • @scrimshank1
      @scrimshank1 Před 2 lety

      I think Martin lowered his tuning to make the guitar sound like a bass. Just watch his picking and match it to the bass beat.

    Martin and Dave great together but failed with Julie who gave all only to be backed by weak guitar and mandolin folksy picking and no harmony vocal.
    This powerful Gordon Lightfoot song deserved better, a lot better.
