Bellowhead performing live at the Royal Albert Hall, November 14th, 2022. Halfway through the gig they introduced the voice of Paul Sartin singing 'The Brisk Lad' [Roud 1667] and accompanied him in a moving tribute to their dear friend.
An incredibly moving remembrance for Paul at the Southend Cliffs Pavillion. Thank you Bellowhead for showing how it should be done with such a wonderful song.
I'd only known Paul Sartin as a harmony vocalist and fiddler/oboist in Bellowhead. The first time I ever heard him sing solo was "Poor Fellows" from Peter Bellamy's The Transports at Shrewsbury in 2017.Oh my! What a magnificent instrument he had!
Thank you for recording and posting. I wept through the performance in London, having just seen Paul at Folkeast. What a voice and what a gent, always x
