Available for the first time is this unique and intimate performance from June 1975.
It was recorded for the German TV show Rockpalast. This is a very rare live performance from the ‘classic’ line up of Steeleye Span and shows the band in their prime in great quality.
It was filmed a few months after the 'Commoners Crown' album was recorded so features tracks from that album including the epic Long Lankin plus Little Sir Hugh and Demon Lover.
The band went into the studio with Mike Batt to start recording 'All Around My Hat' the month after this performance.
Note that there was no crowd, this was a Made For TV Session and as it was not broadcast in full, this version has not had the applause (etc) edits added in.
For more information, more videos and all the latest Steeleye Span news see my website steeleyespanfan.co.uk/
Line Up:
Maddy Prior
Tim Hart (Acoustic Guitar, Dulcimer)
Bob Johnson (Guitar, Mandolin)
Peter Knight (Violin, Mandolin)
Rick Kemp (bass)
Nigel Pegrum (Drums)

I saw her (without SS) at the Nettlebed Folk Club in Oxfordshire about 25 years ago. The (female) friend I was with came back from the Ladies just before the start of the concert and said she had just been treated to an amazing performance by Maddy who was using the acoustics in there to warm up her voice. Except she didn't *know* it was Maddy (she'd no idea what Maddy looked like) and just said "there was a woman in there who was as mad as a box of frogs, singing her heart out"... and then Maddy came onto the stage and my friend realised who she'd heard practicing! Nettlebed had a great atmosphere. I heard Dave Swarbrick and Martin Carthy performing there, not long after Swarb had "come back from the dead" (a national newspaper ran an obituary for him several years too early, after Swarb was in hospital with lung problems). I remember how small and hunched he looked - but it didn't stop him making his violin sing just like in the old days, even though he was hooked up to an oxygen cylinder (the audience was asked not to smoke that evening because of the oxygen!)

I saw the group in the summer of 1973 when they opened for Jethro Tull during the Passion Play tour in Albuquerque, NM. They came out in these very tall Druid style costumes. Completely unexpected but a very well remembered set. Between the two of them, this was the best concert I have ever been to in all my years.

We were opening our set with the Lyke Wake Dirge, a grim piece of music from Yorkshire concerning purgatory and we all dressed in dramatic mummers ribbons with tall hats. The effect was stunning. Five gaunt figures in line across the front of the stage, lit from below casting huge shadows, intoning this insistent dirge alarmed some members of the audience whose reality was already tampered with by 70s substances. It was most satisfying".

Saw Steeleye Span when they toured Australia in 1982 (with the line-up in the video here) and again in 1984 (same line-up minus Tim Hart). After the '84 concert at the Dallas Brooks Hall in Melbourne, I got to meet the band backstage. All wonderfully warm and welcoming, even including a chat about the cricket! I saw Maddy again in 2002 at the Port Fairy Folk Festival where fellow folk illuminaries Fairport Convention also performed. I knew Tim Hart passed away in 2009, but so sad to read of Bob Johnson's passing in December 2023. RIP to two great musicians.

I first heard Fairport Convention in California in 1973. By 1979, I was helping out at the fencing concession at the Renaissance Faire. It was then that I found Steeleye Span. 20 years of teaching fencing and cavorting at the Faire. For six years of that time, I lived remote on the Sonoma Coast over the Pacific Ocean in a little cabin. I played Steeleye Span practically every day. It was such a magical time of my life. These Steeleye videos seem to have just come up, at last in my feed. I love it. Thanks for the upload.

The drumming of Nigel Pegrum is so right fitting for this music and he was a brilliant star who shone brightly and really appeared to enjoy his role. Also his performance couldn't have been better played by Dave Mattocks et al. Of course the whole band are at the top of their game here and this footage is a true joy to all Span fans. Thank you vey much.

How about June Tabor? She & Maddy Prior put out a few albums in the mid-late '70s as Silly Sisters.

I saw them in Chicago in the late seventies. Met Nigel Pegrum in the bar and asked him to send me the lyrics to "Cam Ye O'er Frae France." True to his word he did. I still cherish his handwritten reply.

Wow - wonderful. I used to go to a small club somewhere near Liverpool St in the early 70’s to hear them. Tim and Mandy would come and sit with us between sets. Her father used to be script writer foe Z cars!

Steeleye at their best. Saw them a few times during this period. Met Tim Hart and Maddie Prior when they were a duo in 1969 at Ashley House folk club in 1969. Great stuff.

And the over modernised stuff that passes for English folk or English Folk/Rock nowadays stands in pale comparison to this raw, gritty, pure and natural 70s sound....
