All very interesting, but I'm off to see Steeleye Span - 35 years and still on the road!

Is Maddy still with them?

Yes Maddy Prior has returned! She left for 4 or 5 years to pursue other projects, as they say, but they now have a reunion lineup with Ken Nicol on guitar (ex Albion Band). It was a very good gig, in fact my minidisc recording came out quite well. But the drummer, oh dear - far too busy for my liking, I prefer the sparse approach like Dave Mattacks, but each to his own I suppose. They are coming to the USA later this year, so I do recommend going to a gig. The interplay between fiddle & guitar is superb.
