0:00:03 > 0:00:07MUSIC: Guitar instrumental "Angie"

0:00:07 > 0:00:09Don't film me just yet - get me good side!

0:00:28 > 0:00:29'You are talking to an oddball.'

0:00:29 > 0:00:32I don't play regular music, you know, so...

0:00:32 > 0:00:37I don't always stick to the bars or how many of this, that and the next thing.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39'Most people, actually, you know...'

0:00:39 > 0:00:41if they follow musical rules,

0:00:41 > 0:00:44they wouldn't write songs like I do.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47It's always a challenge to play with Bert,

0:00:47 > 0:00:50and the nicest kind of creative challenge,

0:00:50 > 0:00:56because he and Davey Graham evolved this British style of playing blues and playing guitar, acoustic guitar.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58And that's no underestimation.

0:00:58 > 0:01:04'I've always had that ability to actually play with a sort of variety of people.'

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Some of them have never met each other before.

0:01:06 > 0:01:12'I've had Ralph McTell playing with Johnny Marr. I think it's quite amazing.'

0:01:12 > 0:01:16What Muddy Waters is to Keith Richards or Eric Clapton or whatever...

0:01:16 > 0:01:19When I was growing up, that figure for me

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- was Burt Jansch. - It's quite exhilarating,

0:01:21 > 0:01:24because you don't know what's gonna happen, really.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27And he does all these little things like dropping a beat,

0:01:27 > 0:01:31just cos he fancies it or he forgets or something. And you're suddenly..."Oh!"

0:01:31 > 0:01:37- 'You have to be on your toes, that's for sure.- Johnny was the original fan,

0:01:37 > 0:01:40'and then Bernard was a fan of Johnny's,

0:01:40 > 0:01:44'and through that whole sort of system, we ended up playing - all three of us - together.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47'Bernard and I played together a few times,'

0:01:47 > 0:01:54but getting to play a Pentangle tune with Bert and Jacqui is kind of knockout for me,

0:01:54 > 0:01:57so I'd better get it right.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00We had a rehearsal and ran through everything - once -

0:02:00 > 0:02:03and, amazingly, it all came together very quickly.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07'I know Jacqui backwards, so it clicks into place.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10'I'm just looking forward to actually playing those songs again.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11'It'll be good.'

0:02:14 > 0:02:17'It always makes you feel it's worth actually keeping going,

0:02:17 > 0:02:21'cos most people of my age would have given up ages ago!'

0:02:21 > 0:02:25APPLAUSE, CHEERING AND WHISTLING

0:05:27 > 0:05:28I suppose what I'm known for.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39This is called Blackwaterside.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24# One morning fair

0:06:24 > 0:06:27# I took the air

0:06:27 > 0:06:32# Down by Blackwaterside

0:06:33 > 0:06:40# Twas in gazing all around me

0:06:40 > 0:06:44# The Irish lad I spied

0:06:50 > 0:06:54# All through the first part of the night

0:06:54 > 0:06:57# We laid

0:06:57 > 0:06:59# Sport and play

0:06:59 > 0:07:02# Till this young man arose

0:07:03 > 0:07:05# And gathered his clothes

0:07:06 > 0:07:11# Saying, "Fare thee well today"

0:07:15 > 0:07:17# Well, then, go home now

0:07:17 > 0:07:20# To your father's garden

0:07:20 > 0:07:22# Go home

0:07:22 > 0:07:24# Weep your fill

0:07:24 > 0:07:31# And think on your own misfortune

0:07:31 > 0:07:35# You've wrought with your wanton will... #

0:08:53 > 0:08:55# One morning fair

0:08:55 > 0:08:57# I took the air

0:09:57 > 0:10:02a very dear friend and one of my oldest friends -

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Ralph McTell.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08APPLAUSE

0:10:16 > 0:10:21The song that I first heard Bert playing down at Les Cousins - if there's any here old enough

0:10:21 > 0:10:24to remember Les Cousins in Greek Street -

0:10:24 > 0:10:26and it seemed to sum up...

0:10:27 > 0:10:31..the thoughts and dreams of adventure that were about then.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51# Running, running from home

0:10:51 > 0:10:54# Breaking ties that you've grown

0:10:54 > 0:10:57# Catching dreams from the clouds

0:11:05 > 0:11:08# And you walk on pavements so old

0:11:08 > 0:11:10# You cast a glance at the young

0:11:10 > 0:11:13# Girls a-making their way

0:11:19 > 0:11:21# Yet be a beauty in age

0:11:21 > 0:11:24# A pleasure pleasing my mind

0:11:24 > 0:11:26# Your heart will shatter and a-fall

0:11:31 > 0:11:34# Just like a fly when it's caught

0:11:34 > 0:11:37# The spider soon takes its prey

0:11:37 > 0:11:40# Spins a dance round your heart

0:11:44 > 0:11:47# Yet be a beauty in age

0:11:47 > 0:11:49# A pleasure pleasing my mind

0:11:49 > 0:11:52# Your heart will shatter and a-fall

0:12:07 > 0:12:12# Running, I'm running from home

0:12:12 > 0:12:15# Breaking ties that I've grown

0:12:17 > 0:12:21- BOTH:- # And catching dreams from the clouds

0:12:24 > 0:12:27# Running, I'm running from home

0:12:52 > 0:12:56APPLAUSE

0:13:09 > 0:13:10This one's called Moonshine.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48# Welcome to the sweet leaves

0:13:48 > 0:13:51# That dance so merrily

0:13:51 > 0:13:55# How I wish the wind would do the same for me

0:13:57 > 0:14:02# But rooted here like a withered tree am I

0:14:02 > 0:14:08# And I watch both day and night pass by

0:14:15 > 0:14:18# Twas a cruel and wicked master

0:14:18 > 0:14:21# Stole my freedom and charged me

0:14:21 > 0:14:25# To fight for him and win him victory

0:14:26 > 0:14:31# But now here am I in this damp and dreary cell

0:14:32 > 0:14:37# And all I know of time is the church bell

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- BOTH:- # Moonshine soft and clear

0:14:47 > 0:14:50# In a death-black endless sky

0:14:50 > 0:14:54# Cartwheeling bright stars twinkling down

0:14:55 > 0:15:00# And from the shadows calls the night owl

0:15:01 > 0:15:06# He's echoing my loneliness

0:15:35 > 0:15:38# Come the stag down from the mountain

0:15:38 > 0:15:41# Come the owl from where he sleeps

0:15:41 > 0:15:45# Come the eagle from his high, high nest

0:15:45 > 0:15:50# To where the salmon does swim and does leap

0:15:50 > 0:15:57# Come fast and boldly set me free

0:16:03 > 0:16:06# I dream of waters flowing

0:16:06 > 0:16:09# Sweet air to softly breathe

0:16:09 > 0:16:13# Of meadowlands where the wagtail bobs and weaves

0:16:14 > 0:16:19# Of sunny days where children dance and play

0:16:20 > 0:16:24# And sweet music to drive my grief away

0:16:25 > 0:16:30# And sweet music to drive my grief away. #

0:24:55 > 0:24:56# She wants to learn to swim

0:24:56 > 0:24:58# She looks at the water

0:29:08 > 0:29:12# Who had two sons and a daughter dear

0:29:12 > 0:29:15# By night and day they were contriving

0:29:15 > 0:29:19# To fill their parents' heart with fear

0:29:27 > 0:29:30# He told his secrets to no other

0:29:30 > 0:29:34# But to her brother this he said

0:29:34 > 0:29:37# "I think our servant courts our sister

0:29:37 > 0:29:40# "I think they have a mind to wed

0:29:40 > 0:29:43# "I'll put an end to all their courtship

0:29:55 > 0:29:58- JACQUI: - # They asked him to go a-hunting

0:29:58 > 0:30:01# Without any fear or strife

0:30:01 > 0:30:04# And these two bold and wicked villains

0:30:04 > 0:30:07# They took away this young man's life

0:30:15 > 0:30:18# And in the ditch there was no water

0:30:18 > 0:30:21# Where only bush and briars grew

0:30:21 > 0:30:24# They could not hide the blood of slaughter

0:30:24 > 0:30:28# So in the ditch his body they threw

0:30:43 > 0:30:47# When they returned home from hunting

0:30:47 > 0:30:51# She asked for her servant man

0:30:51 > 0:30:54# "I ask because I see you whisper

0:30:54 > 0:30:58# "So, brothers, tell me if you can"

0:30:58 > 0:31:01# "Oh, sister, you do offend me

0:31:01 > 0:31:05# "Because you examine me

0:31:05 > 0:31:09# "We've left him where we've been a-hunting

0:31:09 > 0:31:12# "No more of him we could not see"

0:31:12 > 0:31:16# As she lay dreaming on her pillow

0:31:16 > 0:31:19# She thought she saw her heart's delight

0:31:19 > 0:31:23# By her bedside as she lay weeping

0:31:23 > 0:31:27# He was dressed in his bloody coat

0:31:27 > 0:31:30# "Don't weep for me my dearest jewel

0:31:30 > 0:31:34# "Don't weep for me nor care nor pine

0:31:34 > 0:31:37# "For your two brothers killed me cruel

0:31:37 > 0:31:44# "In such a place you may me find"

0:32:10 > 0:32:13# As she rose early the next morning

0:32:13 > 0:32:16# With heavy sigh and bitter groan

0:32:16 > 0:32:19# The only love that she admired

0:32:19 > 0:32:22# Lay in the ditch where he was thrown

0:32:26 > 0:32:31# Three days and nights she did sit by him

0:32:31 > 0:32:37# And her poor heart was filled with woe

0:32:37 > 0:32:42# Till cruel hunger crept upon her

0:32:42 > 0:32:53# And home she was obliged to go. #

0:33:49 > 0:33:51# Oh, miles from you

0:33:54 > 0:33:57# Thought I tried my best

0:33:57 > 0:34:01# To be your man

0:41:18 > 0:41:19# Paint my picture

0:43:52 > 0:43:54Thank you.

0:44:42 > 0:44:46# The Black Knight surveys all before him

0:44:46 > 0:44:49# His charger is thumping the ground

0:44:49 > 0:44:52# High on the hill the high Bishop looks down

0:44:52 > 0:44:54# From his men and the horses

0:44:54 > 0:44:57# Not a whisper of sound

0:44:57 > 0:45:00# They're all dressed for the battle

0:45:00 > 0:45:02# Their colours fly high

0:45:02 > 0:45:05# And flutter in the wind

0:45:17 > 0:45:20# The White Queen her face red with anger

0:45:20 > 0:45:23# Turns to her left and her right

0:45:23 > 0:45:26# To the men of the King she screams and yells

0:45:26 > 0:45:30# "Let them know that you come from the fires of Hell

0:45:31 > 0:45:33# "And we'll give them a fight"

0:45:39 > 0:45:41# Like a black painted shadow

0:45:41 > 0:45:44# Unmoved and unhurried

0:45:44 > 0:45:45# One look from her eye

0:45:45 > 0:45:47# And the King's men they roar

0:45:47 > 0:45:54# And into the battle like never before

0:46:12 > 0:46:15# The White Bishop he moves his men forward

0:46:15 > 0:46:18# To guard his knight's men up ahead

0:46:18 > 0:46:21# For fear of the Queen and love for their King

0:46:21 > 0:46:24# They'll fight till they win or they'll fight till they're dead

0:46:25 > 0:46:27# Ain't nothing in between

0:47:20 > 0:47:24# Like a black hare that's chased by the Devil

0:47:24 > 0:47:26# O'er the battlefield she flies like the wind

0:47:26 > 0:47:30# She turns to look down the path to her prey

0:47:30 > 0:47:35# This time she swears you won't get away

0:47:35 > 0:47:37# Nobody to save you

0:47:37 > 0:47:39# Kneel down before me

0:47:39 > 0:47:42# For I have won the day. #

0:47:49 > 0:47:53APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:47:59 > 0:48:00Thank you very much.

0:48:00 > 0:48:04And I think I'd like for Bernard to come back on, please,

0:48:04 > 0:48:07if he's ready. APPLAUSE

0:48:15 > 0:48:18This is a little song called...

0:48:20 > 0:48:22..called The River Bank.

0:48:37 > 0:48:39# Sitting on the river bank

0:48:39 > 0:48:42# Watching the water flow

0:48:42 > 0:48:46# Sitting here thinking and a-wondering

0:48:46 > 0:48:48# Which way to go

0:48:49 > 0:48:52# Now the river sings the sweetest songs

0:48:52 > 0:48:54# In a million harmonies

0:48:54 > 0:48:57# But the sun shines brighter on the other side

0:48:57 > 0:49:00# That's where I want to be

0:49:01 > 0:49:04# So, please, Mr Ferryman

0:49:04 > 0:49:06# Won't you take me to the other side?

0:49:06 > 0:49:08# Where the songbirds sing for me

0:49:08 > 0:49:12# Where life is led by the hand of fate

0:49:12 > 0:49:14# It's how it ought to be

0:49:29 > 0:49:31# When the evening shadows reach out

0:49:31 > 0:49:33# At the setting of the sun

0:49:33 > 0:49:36# Will I still be wishing and a-wondering

0:49:36 > 0:49:38# When the morning comes?

0:49:40 > 0:49:42# For I once could swim against the tide

0:49:42 > 0:49:44# Like the salmon who swims for home

0:49:44 > 0:49:48# But I'll be happy now just to hitch a ride

0:49:48 > 0:49:50# And make it on my own

0:49:51 > 0:49:53# So, please, Mr Ferryman

0:49:53 > 0:49:56# Won't you take me to the other side?

0:49:56 > 0:49:58# Where the songbirds sing for me

0:49:58 > 0:50:01# Where life is led by the hand of fate

0:50:01 > 0:50:03# It's how it ought to be

0:50:15 > 0:50:18# "Well, I'll take you" says the ferryman

0:50:18 > 0:50:20# "But if I should close my eyes

0:50:20 > 0:50:22# "And fall asleep before we land

0:50:22 > 0:50:26# "You must take these oars and forever more

0:50:26 > 0:50:28# "Be at my command

0:51:27 > 0:51:30very early attempts at hitchhiking.

0:55:27 > 0:55:32# My name is Carnival

0:55:34 > 0:55:37# Sad music in the night

0:55:37 > 0:55:38# Sings a stream of light

0:55:38 > 0:55:40# Out of chorus

0:55:44 > 0:55:45# Voices you might hear

0:55:45 > 0:55:49# Appear and disappear in the forest

0:55:53 > 0:55:57# My name is Carnival

0:56:13 > 0:56:14# White haloes spin

0:56:14 > 0:56:16# With an anger that is thin

0:56:16 > 0:56:18# And turns to sorrow

0:56:23 > 0:56:24# Stings of yellow tears

0:56:24 > 0:56:26# Drip from black wired fears

0:56:26 > 0:56:28# In the meadow

0:57:01 > 0:57:03# The shadow lion waits

0:57:03 > 0:57:06# Outside your iron gates with one wish granted

0:57:06 > 0:57:08# Colours all

0:57:10 > 0:57:14# My name is Carnival

0:57:16 > 0:57:18# Without a thought or sigh

0:57:18 > 0:57:22# You come to hypnotise the danger

0:57:26 > 0:57:28# In a world that comes apart

0:57:28 > 0:57:32# There is no single heart and life is stranger

0:57:32 > 0:57:33# Wheel and call

0:57:33 > 0:57:39# Cloud dreams all in the name of Carnival
