This is one of my favorite songs in the world! I can't believe it is hanging out here on TH-cam!!! 5 stars!!! He sounds just like the recording on "Off the Map" even without Garnet. THANKS!!! Rolland B. Heiss
Absolutely love this song. Off to see Archie at the Doune The Rabbit Hole festival tomorrow and and then again in Edinburgh next month - great to see him still going strong!
I heard this song many years ago on "the folk sampler". I was luck to have my cassette recorder on. Listened to it for years until my tape gave out. But the song stuck with me for years. It is amazing how a song can take you back to a time and place. I have it on CD now. You should sample his version of "The Final Trawl".
Archie is a Genius. His melodies fill my soul.
Excellent.
Stumbled over this, his voice like honey coated whisky sweeties and his guitar playing sublime, as always. Not bad for an "old codger".

lucky you are
Hi, where did you hear about his gigs? I live in Edinburgh and I had no idea, damn' me..
Wonderful.
We saw him live a few weeks ago. It struck me that when he tunes his guitar, it's like a performance.

Yes, it hints of Yeats, Well done Archie Fisher
Does anyone know what has happened to Archie Fisher? Always a great favourite of mine, I have never heard anything about him for years.
He lives down the road from me, he is doing well and is currently at a gig down in England
“South winds of the gentle breeze, you banish winter weather “ God bless Archie Fisher.
