Martin Carthy & Dave Swarbrick - Selections. CD. (Demon Records - EDCD682) A CD issue for this 1971 compilation of the work of English folk music's most influential figure (and father of Eliza).

Many of the songs they performed that night were to be found on those early MARTIN CARTHY albums, but on stage the interplay between Martin and Dave virtually re-wrote all the material.
