Peter Bellamy @ Kilmarnock Folk Club, 1975
Peter Bellamy @ Kilmarnock Folk Club, 1975 - This is a recording of Peter Bellamy at Kilmarnock Folk Club. The recording at this stage is only roughly edited - the volume level on some of the introductions has been raised but the transitions might be a bit clumsy. The recording is also split here into two parts. We will need to go back to the source tape to try to work out the sequence of the evening, as it could be that part of the recording was overwritten during the evening.
