1	Red & Gold (1988) more music like this by Fairport Convention Though their most famous albums were over a decade past by the late '80s, Fairport Convention was still releasing albums that were good enough to convert new listeners. Red & Gold is a case in point, an assured and enjoyable album of the band's trademark mix of English folk and rock. Simon Nicol's vocal on the title cut is worth the price of the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!

4	The Lasting Spirit: The Collection (2005) more music like this by Fairport Convention This Fairport Convention triple-CD set represents a startlingly good idea that comes off well -- a compilation of live performances from across the group's history, intermingling class concert recordings from back as far as the late '60s with much more recent work from the Cropredy Festival. What one comes away appreciating anew is just how good a ... see all copies from $19.99! new only from $19.99!
5	Some of Our Yesterdays: Anthology, 1985-1995 (2002) more music like this by Fairport Convention Fairport Convention may have disbanded officially in 1979, but buoyed by the ongoing success of their annual Cropredy Folk Festival, they kept plugging away, and by 1985 had returned to making new studio albums.

6	The Classic Collection (2006) more music like this by Fairport Convention It can't be an easy task to compile a comprehensive Fairport Convention retrospective. In its four decades, all the while remaining consistently popular among its core audience, the British folk-rock band has seen numerous membership shifts and label changes, spinning a labyrinthine web that only the hardiest of compilers would attempt to traverse ... see all copies from $9.48! new only from $9.48!

9	Heart of England: The Legends of English Folk (1998) more music like this by Various Artists The music of the British Isles is especially important for American listeners, not only due to the sheer beauty of the material, but because it is an ancestor of so many of their own folkways. It is found in its purest form in Appalachian and old-timey music, but frequently turns up as well in bluegrass, Christmas carols, nursery rhymes, and ... see all copies from $4.99!
10	Across the Decades (2004) more music like this by Fairport Convention Across the Decades is an apt title for a band that's as much an institution as anything. With more than 35 years under their belt, Fairport have a huge catalog to cherry-pick from for what's essentially a best-of release. Be warned, however, that there's nothing from the classic Sandy Denny/Richard Thompson lineup that helped invent British folk ... see all copies from $13.08! new only from $13.08!
