It did nothing for me, and I was hoping for something good. I have liked a lot of the earlier Whitesnake albums, but "Trouble" won't be one of them.

Quoting your review of the below date, as it is easier than writing my own. :) On (29 Oct 96) Rick Mcbroom wrote to All... RM> Concert review: Fairport Convention Aladdin theater, Portland, OR RM> The current lineup of Fairport Convention is: RM> Simon Nicol (vocals, guitar) Yep RM> Dave Pegg (bass, mandolin) Yep, bless him! RM> Ric Sanders (violin) Yep. RM> Martin Allcock (guitar, bouzouki, keyboards) Been replaced, I think. I don't remember the guys name, but the fourth initially played violin, then picked up a mandolin, as well as a cittern(?) kind of a teardrop shaped body with a long neck. RM> Dave Mattacks (percussion) No percussion. RM> As it turns out, there are TWO iterations of the band, Fairport RM> Thompson). So the actual lineup this night was: RM> Simon Nicol (vocals, acoustic guitar) RM> Dave Pegg (5-string electric bass) RM> Ric Sanders (violin) RM> Martin Allcock (acoustic guitar, boutar) This was closer to what I saw, see above. RM> promptly at 8pm, and ran 'til 10:20, with a 15 minute break RM> separating the two sets. Just like the show we saw. very close. RM> It was immediately apparent that these guys are all shameless hams. Agreed! RM> Sanders in particular is something of a "class clown". But the most fun to watch! RM> Later, he spent a couple of minutes building up a "stunning RM> minimalist bass solo" in one of the songs. Pegg takes center stage, RM> the band hits a break, and he brings forth a single "twang". I guess RM> you had to be there.. ;-) Another sample of their humor; They did a fair amount of that type of banter, as well as some interaction with various members of the audience. There was one point, worked up as an introduction to a song, that Pegg made much of the fact that three of the four on stage had, at one time or another, been members, touring or ecording, of Jethro Tull. During this buildup, Simon made something of a show of moping towards the back of the stage until the crowd gave him a sympathetic 'aww.' They then went into 'Life's a long song' off of Tull's Living In the Past. RM> How was the music? Ah! Glad you asked! RM> In a word, great! Agreed again! RM> lower register. The bass was mixed rather low, but there was some RM> /serious/ bottom there, all the same. Sanders is a good fiddler, if Mix was rather well balanced at this show. I was at my usual spot right behind and slightly to the side of the sound man. RM> rather fond of excessive (IMO!) embellishment. The real star of the I really enjoyed the parts where Sanders and the other fiddler were given free rein to cut loose. They traded off back and forth, and complemented each other fantastically. There were times when the whole band was jamming their collective arses off. Pegg can do some amazing things on that bass. RM> Other highlights included a couple of their early numbers, the RM> marvelous "Walk A While", and a rockin' "the Ballad of Matty Groves". RM> I confess that I was sort of hoping that they /wouldn't/ do "Matty RM> Groves", as I couldn't see how they could ever match the great Sandy RM> Denny/Richard Thompson/Dave Swarbrick version from _Liege and Lief_. RM> However, I've got to admit that they did it justice! Another that RM> captivated me was "the Hiring Fair", a number that was new to me. A RM> rather risque (by Folk standards) boy-gets- RM> girl-despite-tremendous-odds song, it was perhaps the best of the RM> concert. "Crazy Man Michael" and "the Deserter" were other standouts. Not being familiar with their music (I don't even own any of their albums) I am nevertheless looking profusely. I can, however, vouch that they played all but the last two of the above mentioned tunes. They may have even played those, there were a few that I didn't catch the names of. RM> They closed the show a few minutes after 10:00, then came back and RM> did two numbers as an encore, both Irish jigs. And a fine job they RM> did on them.. for a quartet of Brits. ;-) I was able to chat with Gee, we only got one encore. RM> All in all, it was a fine show. Agreed yet again. I took a friend who is not familiar with much in that genre, except for some of the stuff he's heard through me. He seemed to thoroughly enjoy the show, and was particularly captivated by the abilities of the tow fiddle players. He's helping me look for some CD's :) Ta-ta...
