    . Tlze En~lish fol~ scene has always seemed obscure and mysterious from tlzis J szd~ of the. Atlantzc Ocean. _Tize traditional music of the British Isles began a re­ I nmssance ~n tlze 1950s and 60s witlz Ewan MacCo/1 A .L. Lloyd, Imz Campbell and Ma.rtm Carthy. Tlzey paved the way for the singer/songwriter/guitarist, who, w>tll a nod towards Bob Dylan, updated the traditional folk style and syn­ thesized it with blues and jazz. The early '60s wave was led by Bert Jansch, John Nicl\_ Renbour:rz, D~vey Graham, Ralpl1 McTe/1 and Donovan, to be followed by Fair­ port Conventzon, John Martyn, Pentangle and the Incredible String Band. ~orne .of thes~ people r~ached llationwide, even worldwide, success. Many re­ r:zamed m relatzve obscunty, rarely if ever playing ill the States. They remained m the folk club and small concert scene in Englmzd. Tlzeir music was often intri­ Drake cate, introsp~ctive and unlike tlze )olk mu~ic" we were accustomed to. One of them .wa~ Nzck Drake, who remams to thzs. day all almost anonymous figure, even m hzs own country. already established himself through Witch­ season Productions, recording LPs by Fair­ port, John Martyn and the Incredible String Band (as well as being the latter's mentor/manager). He called Nick and asked for a tape, which Nick obliged. Joe described his initial impression of Drake's music as "melodically unusual and sophisti­ cated." There was no doubt that Nick had to be nurtured and recorded. Five Leaves Left was begun in mid-1968.

    Thanks to the taper; and to kneesfudd for sharing the show at Dime. kneesfudd noted: Warts: Volume levels a bit erratic on #1. #10 has tapeflip splice in middle. Fixed a number of small pops, dullspots and dropouts, but surely missed a few. Last minute of #12 dropped in volume, so is a bit hissy where it was raised. The other two acts on the bill were the Dazz Band and Whitesnake. The audience was not happy about the billing. Non-stop background chanting for Whitesnake going on between songs.

So, finally, I've come to the stage where one of two things must happen. Either I cut back to a very small circulation and keep paying for it all myself, or I accept subscriptions for the 'zine. Until now, I haven't particularly thought the 'zine worth it,( typically modest self-depreciation!), but cir­ cumstances (approaching bankruptcy) force me to accept the second alter­ native. So from now on readers who either don't contribute, exchange or send letters of comment (even if its only "I like/loathe it") will have to pay real money, at a rate of 25p a copy in Britain or 2 per dollar over­ seas (bills only please).
