Strawbs-Tears and Pavan Live in1973

[@MrHistorian123]

Bought the album the day it came out. The album has a few duff tracks (Thank You, Part of the Union) but there are some real gems on there: Lady Fuschia, Tears and Pavan and the utterly magnificent Down by the Sea.

From Bursting at the Seams LP one enduring classic and put this band in a special class (music and lyrics by David Cousins) even today it is very moving music!!!!!

[@REPay1000]

Rick Hudson & John Ford wrote the second part's music...

[@davidsuttie4192]

Never forget Strawbs.... One of the definitive bands of the early 70s.

[@richbicoff2212]

Amazing band..one of my all time faves. Being an old head I was fortunate to see them in the mid 70’s. And when they reappeared first acoustic & then electric in 2000’s wow! Met David Cousins & Chas .Cronk...great blokes!! Def deserve more attention & praise

Gorgeous song. Great voice. Played incessantly as student in 1970s. Nice memories.

[@emmettmckenna4565]

What a great band! I saw them five times in the 70s and once in the 80s. I dragged my friends along to the shows with me. None of them regretted it!

One of many brilliant OGWT moments stashed away in my memory that KZbin has extracted over the years.

Strawbs greatness!!!!

[@danguee1]

Sort of bonkers that SUCH accomplished composition and playing has managed only one comment in over a year! These guys are awesome.....

[@HughCorbyCruick]

danguee1 Been a fan since the “Bursting at the Seams” album. Seen them a bunch of times. Simply a band that the world never caught on to. I’ve been grateful that I’ve been able to enjoy them through the years and suggest folks at least check out their You Tube videos, if not see them should they ever come your way. Really a great band.

[@bradleystone2623]

Blue Weaver on the keys!

[@evansmith3589]

Great keyboard-guitar interplay!

[@scorpiochris3635]

Ohh takes me back to my late teenage years with blue weaver on keyboards who went on to do great things with the Bee Gees

[@handebarlas6248]

Oh thank you so much! I like the song very much too. I havent seen this before. Yes the guitars are suberb! Cheers.

[@fitnann]

Love this

[@stevebelsey8714]

Great video - and the interplay between the two guitars... wow. You don't get this on the LP.

[@emmettmckenna4565]

Yes, you do. This is exactly as it is on the album! This is a lip sync performance!

[@emmettmckenna4565]

Live vocals over the backing track of the record. So technically, not lip sync, but not entirely live. The point is, the guitars are exactly the same. I’ve listened to this album as much as I’ve listened to “Abbey Road.”

Not really live .
