Please see our feedback
Test pressings were made with the original track listing. Before the album was officially released, Richard Thompson requested that "Poor Will and the Jolly Hangman" be removed.This was done at such a late stage that the first LP sleeves had already been printed with the song shown on the track listing. A black block had to be printed over the original list with the revised track listing overprinted in gold
HOWEVER a few sleeves were issued to the public without the overprinting and with the incorrect track listing. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE VERY RARE SLEEVES
All subsequent printings had the corrected track listing despite the fact that the sleeve notes still referred to the missing track.
"Poor Will and the Jolly Hangman" is thus listed but is NOT on the LP.
This is a holy grail for Fairport Convention collectors and it's unlikely you'll find another in this condition.
Don't let this slip by
Beautiful gatefold textured sleeve: Ex - See photos
LP: play tested - sounds brilliant.
