Box Sets

For the first time ever, fans can experience the timeless magic of Fairport Convention's Second Golden Age all in one place with this meticulously crafted and comprehensive It All Came Round Again: Onstage and On Air 1982-90 deluxe boxset. With access to hours of live performances both on stage at Cropredy and in session on the BBC, this bespoke Madfish offering, curated by Bert Jansch/John McLaughlin biographer&nbsp;Colin Harper, is the definitive tribute to the legendary British folk-rock band's enduring legacy. The Fairport Convention legend was forged between 1967 and 1979 - 12 years, 16 albums, umpteen line-ups and four exhausted people at the end of it. In August 1980, the last line-up - Simon Nicol, Dave Swarbrick, Dave Pegg &amp; Bruce Rowland - reunited for a day in a farmer's field in Cropredy, Oxfordshire, establishing the iconic 'Fairport's Cropredy Convention' festival in the process. Five relatively quiet years passed by before, in 1985 and by popular demand, a new recording and touring Fairport Convention assembled around Peggy and Simon. Everything moved up a gear. There would be four new albums by 1990 and BBC Radio welcomed the reborn folk-rockers with remarkable regularity.
