An Hour With Cecil Sharp And Ashley Hutchings

ASHLEY HUTCHINGS An Hour With Cecil Sharp & Ashley Hutchings (1986 UK 33-track LP, a fantastic selection of folk songs, jigs & dances from early 1900's pioneer & founder of the folklore revival Cecil Sharp, performed & narrated by Fairport Convention founder Ashley Hutchings. This recording features quotes & stories from Cecil by Hutchings as used in the one man show 'An Evening With' that Hutchings toured around the UK in 1984, as well as cylinder recordings from Sharp's back catalogue [which are not be of the best quality as they date back to the early 1900's]. On this record Hutchings also ropes in some help from his friends & fellow folk musicians Martin Carthy, Richard Thompson & Dave Whetstone. The picture sleeve shows minimal wear, the vinyl appears barely played DAM014)
