Richard Thompson. Initial quantities include a slipcase. 11 tracks. Universal. 2004. Review: Classic (OK, sans R.T.) Fairport - The post-Richard Thompson lineup of Fairport Convention always seems to be viewed as subpar. I disagree. OK, R.T. was great, and his exit from Fairport was a great loss, but this allowed the talents of the other band members to flourish in their own right, without the distraction of having R.T. stand there dwarfing them. Simon Nicol did a creditable job on guitar, and it can fairly be said that Thompson's exit allowed him to emerge all the more as a serious musician in his own right. One can also not say enough for the skills of Swarbrick and Mattacks. I'm a bassist myself, and have never been impressed at all with most of what I've heard from Dave Pegg, whose best bass playing IMO was on tracks never released on any Fairport albums. On 'Now Be Thankful' and 'Bonny Bunch of Roses' Pegg is superb, but everywhere else, including this album being reviewed, he is found wanting. Would that Ashley Hutchings had stayed with the group (but then again we wouldn't have Steeleye Span if he stayed). If you can lower your expectations (the R.T. factor) you will be able to enjoy this album very much. 'The Banks of the Sweet Primroses' is one of my favorite Fairport songs ever done, and you have it here in all of its beauty. Review: Great comeback -- terrible price! - Angel Delight is not only one of Fairport Convention's very best ablums, but it is one of the greatest comebacks in rock history. I use the term "comeback" not in the sense that the previous albums were weak, as they were just as good. But to lose Sandy Denny after Leaf and Leige, and then Richard Thompson after Full House, and still have the talent to put out a work of this quality is simply amazing. High points for me are Lord Marlborough and the classical-tinged instrumental Bridge Over the River Ash. Unfortunately, the boys then let things drop off rather percipitously after this album with the very forgetable Babacombe Lee (good concept, poor execution). But why on earth is this album priced at $25? And only one measly bonus track (a live version of the weakest track on the album) for that hefty price? Come on, if you want me to replace my album with the CD, get the price down to the normally ridiculous high CD costs. I won't be buying this until you do. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002HV2MQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #275,909 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #459 in British Folk #3,806 in Traditional Folk (CDs & Vinyl) #5,513 in Folk Rock (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (49) | | Date First Available | January 31, 2007 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | IMCD 307 / | | Label | Universal Uk | | Manufacturer | Universal Uk | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2004 | | Product Dimensions | 6.06 x 5.67 x 0.47 inches; 4.02 ounces | ## Images ![Angel Delight - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UUuvfW7uL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic (OK, sans R.T.)
