Maddy Prior

British electric folk band Steeleye Span celebrates its 20th anniversary with a concert filmed Saturday September 16, 1989 at the Beck Theatre in Hayes, England featuring the group's greatest hits, including "Sailor's Bonnet," "The Fox," "Shaking of the Sheets," "All Around My Hat" and more. Band members Maddy Prior, Bob Johnson, Peter Knight, Tim Harries and Liam Genockey will impress viewers with their mix of contemporary compositions and traditional songs.

This documentary is about the first five years of BBC Radio 1 and contains interviews with the disc jockeys and other folk who were involved in the station's inception. It also contains footage from the previous pirate radio era as a means of explaining why Radio 1 came about.

British electric folk veterans Steeleye Span perform a lively set of eight tunes in this 1989 concert from their "Tempted and Tried" tour. Captured during the band's 20th anniversary, the show features vocals by founding member Maddy Prior. The set list includes "Following Me," "Thomas the Rhymer," "Black Jack Davy," "Padstow," "All Around My Hat," "Shaking of the Sheets" and "Jack Hall Gaudette."

Voici un objet rare. Non pas qu’il soit difficile à dégoter chez votre disquaire préféré, mais Exposed (c’est son nom) est à ce jour le seul témoignage scénique de Mike Oldfield. La chose fut enregistrée en 1978 avec une plâtrée de musiciens pas piqués des vers : Maddy Prior (Steeleye Span), Phil Beer (à la tienne), Nico Ramsden, les frangins Pierre et Benoît Moerlen (Gong) mais également le bassiste polonais Pekka Pohjola (auteur du très bon album Mathematician Air Display sur lequel intervient Mike, avis aux amateurs), David Bedford, Mike Frye, Tim Cross, les musiciens traditionnels Robin Morton et Ringo McDonough ainsi que le Queen College Girls Choir et j'en passe... autant dire que le père Oldfield voyait les choses en scope, en grand large, en mirobolant ! Tant est si bien que malgré son succès, la tournée s'avèrera un réel désastre financier. Pour se consoler, Virgin tentera d'amortir les dégâts avec ce double album.
