Dervish : Mechanics, Burnley, 07/11/2005

This is my own recording, of an excellent concert. We had heard of Dervish through Kate Rusby who was singing their praises at a gig at the Lowry in Manchester and decided we would have to catch them. So glad we did. Sound quality is excellent apart from a few squeaks from the door to the sound booth and the odd rustle between songs from moving my position. Available in audio or Flac formats. (A)
