Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- Peter Bellamy performing at home in the late 1980s from a very old VHS tape. The quality of the original isn't too much better than this camera copy. The songs are The Death of Bill Brown and Goodbye Old Paint.
We've all been looking for Peter Bellamy ever since UA-cam began - thanks so much for these!
This comment has age 'd well. God bless you and Sir Bellamy
Died before I was born. Never heard him just speaking before. Posher than I expected.
Digging through some old live recordings i made of Peter at the Sidmouth folk festival in the 1970s, Not heard for of him for 40 years, playing over and over, and struck me what a wonderful singer he was.
So i hunting for more of his material bought me here.
Thank you for posting these wonderful tapes. Peter was truly one of the greats.
Peter was a lovely man and I still miss after all these years
thank you for posting...a man not to be forgotten
peter bellamyの動画、しかもカラー映像はメッサ貴重でしょ！！？？
what a wonderfully eccentric style of concertina accompaniment
The first time I heard Peter Bellamy was in about 1980 or 1981. I was running a folk club with a friend of mine and we had booked Martin Carthy. Carthy turned up but he had a sore throat. So he played a few instrumentals then introduced Peter Bellamy, who he had brought along as a substitute. I had never heard anything like his singing. It was amazing. He had brought along copies of his album Both Sides Then, one of which I bought and played over and over. His was a style that was guaranteed never to appeal to a mass audience, but he was deeply appreciated by those whose ears were open to it. It was such a shame that he died too young.
For anyone who has never heard it, I strongly recommend The Transports, a folk-opera that he wrote in the 70s, which features some of the greats of English folk music. All the songs are by Peter Bellamy, though they all sound like traditional folk songs.
Has ‘The Transports’ been deleted? I can’t find a copy anywhere.
Thank you for posting this.
Trying to remember everything what happened, I found out, this Interview took place in Spring 1991. When we left Peter`s House short after the Interview he received a box of tghe first of "Songs and Rummy Conjurin' Tricks! " And I remember Louis Killen was staying in the house as well.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this important video
great stuff. Thanks for posting!
Where did you get this one from????? It is great!
Can he actually play that thing?
You hated it so much in 2018 that you had to come back in 2023 to check you still hate it? Fingers crossed you'll remember to hate it again in 2028.
Bloody awful. Dreadful voice. Why do folkies have to sing in this finger in the ear manner. The style has nothing to do with our English singing tradition. You never heard Harry Cox, Sam Larner or Walter Pardon sing like this. They sang in their natural voice, with no affectation or warbling. Bloody folkies are ruining our song tradition with performances like this. No wonder it is so unpopular now. I speak from experience, coming from Suffolk where if you sang like this in a pub you would have been thrown through the window until recently. All the old singers I knew and most are gone now would never have tolerated this sort of nonsense.
Charlie rum ole boi! Go somewhere else then
Gatekeep much?
So you don't like it then
Nigel has plans for you, dear Charlie

Charlierumoleboi3578: Is "Beauty in the Eyes of the Beholder?" as you seem to be suggesting... Sorry to disappoint you, but I believe that "real beauty" is simply just "there" -waiting for you/one to recognize it, and if you do not/cannot see/hear it, then I think it's ONLY YOU who "loses out" and misses the "pure art" of that beauty. Just because your opinion here is negative, doesn't mean Peter Bellamy's music is so. PB's "musical beauty" is definitely there and I'm sorry you don't see/hear/understand it. Are you a musician? I doubt it, but if you are, then learn from PB's amazing technique, if nothing else... because it's truly extraordinary!
