Description
Brand new studio recordings of Fairport favourites selected by the band's concert and festival audiences celebrating 45 years of Fairport Convention.
Released to celebrate Fairport Convention's forty-fifth anniversary, "By Popular Request" is a studio album featuring brand new versions of Fairport's most popular songs from the past 45 years. But this isn't just any old 'greatest hits' compilation - it is the band's loyal fans who have chosen ALL of the songs.
Through Fairport's website and social media, the fans were invited to list their individual 'top twenty' from the band's repertoire. These lists were analysed and the dozen most popular numbers were specially rearranged and recorded for this album.
