I fell in love with Connie the moment I saw her in the mid 80s at the Jazz Haus in Lawrence Kansas when she was with Scartaglen. I'm still in love with her! Just don't tell her. Okay.
Lyric: All on a Saturday, bright as a bell Early and just for the ride We took a trip cycling down to the sea You and your lady and I And oh, what a summer, and oh, what a sun Bright to the blue sky it clung One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore The summer before the war Warm summer places where you could taste the country air Chasing our shadows we'd fly Down through the narrow lanes, racing the slow trains And the last of an age going by And we had a good time, and we had some fun There was time then when we were all young One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore The summer before the war Young hearts and young souls, young minds to unfold Knowing the untold somehow One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore The summer before the war We found a small cove by the sand and the water The salt air was brushing your skin With your hand in her hand there was nothing to say Just watch the sea rushing in, But oh, what a moment, and oh, what a day We held it and it never slipped away One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore The summer before the war One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore The summer before the war

I've heard her album version of this but never seen her perform it live! Thanks for sharing this video.
How I wish there more videos of you live (esp. Ubi Caritas) - such a wonderful singer, I ve followed you since forever. Keep them coming!!!
LUCKY TO HAVE seen hugh and tony williams sing this live in devon and then hugh sang it at my folk club in dorset not long ago ..

Lyric:
All on a Saturday, bright as a bell
Early and just for the ride
We took a trip cycling down to the sea
You and your lady and I
And oh, what a summer, and oh, what a sun
Bright to the blue sky it clung
One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore
The summer before the war
Warm summer places where you could taste the country air
Chasing our shadows we'd fly
Down through the narrow lanes, racing the slow trains
And the last of an age going by
And we had a good time, and we had some fun
There was time then when we were all young
One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore
The summer before the war
Young hearts and young souls, young minds to unfold
Knowing the untold somehow
One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore
The summer before the war
We found a small cove by the sand and the water
The salt air was brushing your skin
With your hand in her hand there was nothing to say
Just watch the sea rushing in,
But oh, what a moment, and oh, what a day
We held it and it never slipped away
One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore
The summer before the war
One day at Whitsun, the sea and the shore
The summer before the war
thank you, Tabea!
Lovely performance.
Ben's sister. 😁
