Hauntingly beautiful.

besides a mechanical genius, he was such a good story teller, one of England's greatest, what a character…

Hope many are still enjoying this stirring audio art. You Tube, please never take this down as long as your platform exists.

Why is 'Crack Pot Hall' named so? Because of all the subsidence from the lead mining; All the pots have cracks.. ;o]

40 years later it's been demolished

The world is a better place with people like him. Godspeed Fred

This just goes right to the soul,

Wigan clowncil

That’s my old school St Marks too xx

I remember standing at my front gate at 200 Ormskirk road, Newtown when I was little really excited when I heard the brass band start. This brings back lovely memories for me 😊 xx

Among the most beatiful musicpeaces i´ve ever heard. Thankyou Sarah!

i remember when wigan pier was derilict

Espetacular

Steam roller has gone from 20MPH to 40MPH and the hole full of water from 4 ft to 7ft! Wish I had gone to see him at the Bolton show. RIP Fred

OMG! I remember when Nick composed this ( I was married to him at the time.) And also remember how in awe of the orchestra he was when he conducted the RPO ( who he said were very kind to him!) I always loved this. Many thanks.

Beautiful Sarah Jory & Band

All Wigan should be nocked Down and Rebuilt ASAP 👍

normally HATE steel guitar (subjected to too many hours of my mother's DULL Irish country music as a kid!), but this is just incredible. It really picks up every last bit of the emotion of the original. ❤

Wow. So many memories for early 80s TV. 13 years it took to find this! Many thanks x

Loved this piece of music when I first heard it on the 1970/80s Shell advert, I even purchased a TV advert album with it on. Glad I've finally found it again 😊

That 6 string player is awesome too. I wonder what The Dr himself thinks of this

Awesome

All closed down now, Wigan Pier Quarter didn't open for long (labour Council pocketed ALL THE MONEY) as they always do oh and lets not forget all the old Buildings they have knocked down most listed but they don't mind

❗ 'promo sm'

Love it - a fell walker and a chain smoker, and lived into his 80s 😀

This needs editing. It's Part 4 TWICE! :-(

The editing on this is terrible. I'ts the single 30 ,minute Part 3 FOUR time. :-(

ギターリフがナイスです!　カラオケで唄う時は「ジュリーはこの人数では唄いません」と言います

10dancers of yo'hands dance so dainty.I felt calm wind.

A fantastic song played by a brilliant musician.

Walkers carry and wear so much crap these days

Don’t spend money keeping the market tidy and then say it needs tidying up. Spend £30m to Destroy the whole ambience of the market hall.

religion whether your religious or not binds a community together

Memories of my best friend who dies 7 years ago.

Beautiful.

I stumbled onto this video 7 years ago and fell in love. I love this piece so much that I think I will have it played as my going away song at my funeral. I have to say again this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

Songs of Praise has changed a bit since then.Its all gospel now, looking more like Sister Act the musical.

Remember watching this in my early 20s. I have also been wandering the Fells for 36 years. Thanks Alfred

Wigan Market 2.0 went well Well down a shithole

And now its getting knocked down for a new development

Good days but wigan council never learn

9 years ago posted And you tube I think as just showed me this

It's sad to see the decline of a legendary hero.. poor fella can hardly breathe and all those cigarettes have done him serious damage.

Love her playing. Beautiful steel player

I agree with AW about Haystacks, we had the privilege of hiking it back in July and yes, paid our respects to ‘Dear AW’

Beautiful!

Sarah jory was born in the same year as I. It was 1969.

what an amazing man with foresight to create his walking books which opened up the world of walking the Fells to thousands of people...his guide books are as popular as ever and will always be a source of information for all and future Fell walkers.....he would be astounded today to see how popular he made fell walking through his books....

absolutely stunning...what a great man Wainwright was...met him many times when living in Kendal and on the bus to Ambleside...
