You are looking at the Japan First Press Limited Edition
Mini LP CD of "Rosie" by Fairport Convention â

Universal Music Japan's prestigious
"Rock Legend Series / Limited Edition Paper Sleeve"
series, featuring 2004 remastering.
This edition includes 5 bonus live tracks not present
on the original LP release, includes full lyrics
and Japanese translations, and is housed in a
gorgeous mini LP paper sleeve faithfully replicating
the original Island Records LP artwork, complete
with the Japanese OBI STRIP (枯).
ăAbout the Albumă
"Rosie" is Fairport Convention's 8th studio album,
released in 1973 on Island Records. Recorded at
Sound Techniques, London, and produced by Trevor Lucas,
it represents a key chapter in the evolution of
British folk rock.
The album features the classic post-Sandy Denny lineup:
the extraordinary fiddle virtuoso Dave Swarbrick,
the underrated guitarist Jerry Donahue, the rhythm
section of Davey Pegg and Dave Mattacks,
and vocalist/guitarist Trevor Lucas.
Highlights include the warm, rollicking opener "Rosie,"
the traditional reel medley "The Hens March Through
the Midden & The Four Poster Bed," the graceful
"Me with You," and the quirky instrumental "Fits
& Feathers."
Of special note: the album features guest appearances
by two of British folk rock's greatest icons â
Sandy Denny (vocals, Track 1) and Richard Thompson
(electric & acoustic guitars, Track 1) â making
it a must-have for fans of either artist.
Ralph McTell (acoustic guitar, Track 8) also
contributes, adding further star power to an
already exceptional recording.
The 5 bonus live tracks capture Fairport Convention
at their electrifying best in concert, adding
tremendous value to this already essential release.
