I believe there are a couple of Fairport fans on there 😉
Charity single from Richard Thompson & Hugh Cornwall (I never knew they were school classmates) featured Dave Pegg and Dave Mattacks.

Ah, yes – the Emil and The Detectives reunion the World has been waiting for! Hugh was the first celebrity guest at Richard’s 70th birthday celebration at the Royal Albert Hall where they played this and Peaches. ‘So, Hugh, we haven’t really kept in touch. What have you been up to?’ ‘Oh, joined a band, left a band …’ ‘Yeah, I know how it is.’
Peaches from that show. It looks like the person taking it was way up in the standing gallery, as was I.
Remember them this way.
Emil and the Detectives
HC left RT far right.
Fairport/Who knows where the time goes are featured in the current history of rock n roll in 500 songs pod
….. and the Richard Thompson/Hugh Cornwell friendship gets a mention. I did not know they were friends until this week – and now I know twice!
