Oysterband Acoustic w. June Tabor: All Tomorrow's Parties

On 22nd January 2010 more than 30 singers, musicians and dancers came together at the Roundhouse, London to celebrate 30 years of fRoots magazine.
There were lots of surprises and reunions during the evening, one of the most popular of which was seeing Oysterband and June Tabor reunited live on stage.
This is their celebrated version of the Velvet Underground classic All Tomorrow's Parties.

If ever there was a band that complimented the brilliant intense singer June Tabor it was the Oyster Band. They should record another studio album together -- they were so good on Freedom and Rain. Their cover of the Pogues' "Lullaby of London" is excellent on that album too.

Sincere performance, no gimmicks, warm hearted and spooky at the same time, well done all.

VU been my most consistently "favourite" outfit for 50 years …. But this is totally brilliant. Best cover of any VU track ever.

Pleased to announce - since the reunion and new album was catalysed by this gig - that June Tabor & Oysterband's Ragged Kingdom has been voted Album Of 2011 in the annual fRoots Critics Poll

She sings poor old Nico into the ground.

You like this live performance better than the studio recording on "Freedom and Rain"?

Could it be, that you never have listened to the Vinyl...

[@SlightlySusan]

@GreatBonFire Will it be available in the US and what will it be called

[@chrissonne4077]

the vinyl came in 1990, the CD was reprinted in 2006, so I doubt it...
