Description

Fairport Convention's classic folk-rock opera based on the life of John Lee recorded live during the band's UK Tour to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of the original album's release.

'Babbacombe Lee Live Again' revives one of Fairport Convention's most popular musical projects, their classic folkrock opera telling the astounding story of John 'Babbacombe' Lee, famous as "the man they could not hang." This brand new album celebrates the fortieth anniversary of the original release of the band's Babbacombe Lee LP. Fairport performed the work in its entirety at every concert on their UK Tour and during their set at Cropredy festival in 2011.

All the shows were recorded and the cream of the performances have been selected for this all-new live version of the original album.
