Fairport Convention: What We Did On Our Holidays
John Mendelsohn, Rolling Stone, 6 September 1969
THE FIRST thing I did on receiving this album in the mail was stick it in my cardboard album box – with a good mind to leave it stuck for a considerable while – right between Family Entertainment and Fischer, Wildman (An Evening With). Advance word, you see, had been "Sort of another Pentangle," which was okay by me, except that I prefer getting hot and excited to sitting by reverently admiring quiet virtuosity.
Total word count of piece: 555
