Additional Information

Comments Gottle O'Geer (credited to "Fairport" and to "Fairport Featuring Dave Swarbrick" in the US) is the eleventh studio album by English folk rock band Fairport Convention. The album was released through Island Records in May 1976.
The departure of Sandy Denny, Trevor Lucas and Jerry Donahue following Rising for the Moon in 1975 left Fairport Convention reduced to Dave Swarbrick, Dave Pegg and Bruce Rowland, and contractually obliged to produce one more album for Island Records. This album was the result, and Allmusic described it as "listless".[2]

Recorded at Island Studios Hammersmith, except track A1 at Sawmills Studios, Fowey
Mastered at I.B.C.

1st U.K. Pressing.
