(1969) Fairport Convention - What We Did On Our Holidays


Review:
The arrival of Sandy Denny on What We Did On Our Holidays began Fairport
Convention's evolution as the best British folk-rock band from the 1960s.  That is made immediately clear with her
composition "Fotheringay," which kicks off the album.  Partly because it sounds like a traditional song from old
England, and partly because of Denny's heavenly voice, this acoustic song is more ethereal than anything from their
debut.  Another song in this vein is "She Moves Through the Fair," which is more of a band piece (the group is credited
with the arrangement of this folk song) the style of which the group would further explore on "A Sailor's Life" on their
next album. 

Richard Thompson contributed three songs to the album.  One of them, "Tale in Hard Time," has
such an irresistibly melodic keyboard riff that you will be excused for not noticing the dispiriting lyrics ("Take the
sun from my heart/Let me learn to despise").   

A second piece, "No Man's Land," is a traditional-sounding
folk song driven by an accordion as lead instrument.  Lastly, there's "Meet on the Ledge," a resigned slice of reality
not unlike the type of song he would later write while recording with his future wife, Linda Thompson.     

The band gets to display their chops on numbers like the electric-folk blues of "Mr. Lacey" and the wordless "The Lord
is in This Place...How Dreadful is This Place," which contains a slight echo effect, as if it was recorded in a
cathedral.  On this rural blues track, Denny hums a gospel hymn over a slide-guitar accompaniment.   

Fairport Convention tip their collective hat to West Coast folk-rock by including a great Byrds knockoff, "Book Song,"
that was co-written by Thompson and Ian Matthews.   It has a slight country twang to it, with Denny and Matthews singing
harmony.  Also, as on their debut, they perform a sweet sounding Joni Mitchell tune.  The song tells of a casual
encounter that takes place during an "Eastern Rain:" 

You with daybreak in your eyes 
Afraid to speak
for telling lies 
I watch you search for some reply to lend me 
But when the rain is done we'll stop
pretending     

The band also repeat themselves with a Bob Dylan cover, this time around performing "I'll
Keep it With Mine." In addition to doing a great job of showing off Denny's vocals, the arrangement is similar to
Denny's later "Who Knows Where the Time Goes."  Also, the melody to "Nottamun Town" (again credited as a band
composition) is a dead ringer for Dylan's 1963 protest song "Masters of War," which in itself was probably taken from an
earlier folk song.  But hey, if you are going to imitate somebody, you could do a lot worse than to choose Bob Dylan as
your model.        

Throw in a pretty instrumental to close out the album, and Fairport Convention easily
tops their debut with this one. What We Did on Our Holidays sounds better every time I play it.  Hard to believe that
they would top it with the release of Unhalfbricking just six months later.
