Billy Mitchell has a great voice, great songwriter too. This performance is excellent.
Si Cowe was brilliant too. Great singing voice.
"Morris Miner's Dance" Brilliant.
Top notch, fond memories if only talent like this was around today!
Great band. Lucky enough to see them live twice in the 70s.
Split Enz toured with Jack the Lad in 1976
Glad I saw them, fabulous live band. Watching them playing the “Morris Miners Dance” at The Free Trade Hall in Manchester, literally cutting chunks out of the stage with spades 😮
'Rocking Chair' was a double A Side release with 'My Friend the Drink'. Both fine songs.
Thank you SO much for posting this! Some years ago I was looking on YT for any performances by Jack the Lad and there was just about nothing. I found the band by accident. I was rifling through the bins at Rhino Records (in L.A.) and came upon their first album. I'd never heard of them before. Although I'd become familiar with some British electric folk bands, I was only slightly aware of Lindisfarne, much less the connection to Jack the Lad. The only info I had was the album cover, the front of which just showed all their instruments. But, based on the instruments, I decided to take a chance and buy it. When I got it home and played it, I LOVED it! I bought Rough Diamonds, too. Much later, I bought the CDs of both and they've been in my iTunes library ever since.
You are welcome,i've got more Jack The Lad material on Dime a Dozen (torrent site)
Nice I like it never seen it before only heard one release on radio in 1973 , more please
My old mates dad was the bass player for Jack the Lad and weirdly my mate looks a lot like Billy
Saw them at the roundhouse in the 70’s 😊
