A tremendously powerful and important recording from 1972. Morris On led to a re-examination of the English Morris dance.
In 1972 three former members of Fairport Convention - Ashley Hutchings, Richard Thompson and Dave Mattacks - got together with accordion-maestro John Kirkpatrick and acclaimed folk fiddler Barry Dransfield to record this ground breaking album. The results were quite extraordinary and led to a re-examination of the Morris tradition and the formation of many new dance sides. Thirty seven years later, leader Ashley Hutchings continues to tour with his Morris On band.
