GOD, THE MEMORIES OF A HAPPY,ER TIME COME,S FLOODING BACK JUST LISTENING TO THEM NOW, CHEERS LINDISFARNE FOR ALL THE GREAT TIME,S BACK IN THE DAY. PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 🙏✌️😎🏴
Pure dead brilliant, Billy chanelling the one and only Jimmy Alan Hull as only he could do. Missed but never forgotten, those Xmas concerts will be with me forever.
@@tomdevlin9274 tom so agree as long as the songs are sung alan hull will be alive ! I lived near marty and his music is great too ? lindisfarne are great and i,m scots and used to drink with pete agnew who formed nazareth so love music from that era ? I,d love shields to have a 70 festival during a summer ( when we get one ) with lindisfarne /nazareth etc
2 x 12 string guitars - what a brilliant jangle! i loved this song as a kid, I live in the South of England but it always reminds me of happy times in Northumbria.
Great gordie band. I worked up there in the late eighties. Fucking loved Newcastle, and I worked all over Britain, best people, reminded me of being home in Ireland 🇮🇪.
My favourite song from Lindisfarne. It sounds as good as back in the 70's I think. The sound quality is better of course. And the harmonies are awesome! Thanks for uploading
Just a wonderful group and lots of memories for me. I have played this song in my last band years ago and in my current one and the audiences love it!! One of my first 8-track cassettes was "Fog on the Tyne" .....played in my Ford Cortina Mk2!!!!
End of September and only know just found this, what the hell have I been doing, take,s me back to the great day,s we had back then, good memories some a little hazy but still put,s a smile on my face. PEACE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 🕊️🙏✌️😎🏴
Billy did a great job of heading up Lindisfarne after Alan Hull died. A great talent in his own right. This was a very good Lindisfarne line up and soon decided to call it a day after this. Music to be loved for all time.
Takes you back to an innocence that never truly existed, but was good on paper. Gentle poetry sung with a smile on their face. You must have a heart of flint not to smile listening to a song like this. Good luck Ms O'Reilly x
In those days Lindisfarn used to sing in the local folk club along with Vin Garbut. Not nessissarly on the same nights. Loved it all. It told a story. Not like today drivel. Xx❤
Lovely. The singing blend is super. The only thing I missed a little was the bass, whose heavy plodding beat was such an atmospheric element in the original. It's there, but doesn't stick out in the mix as it might.
Totally agree. I noticed it pretty soon, too... along with the wonderful overall quality here and with such a superb song. I bought their first album way back when, and even though I was (still am) a guitarist, I alway played "air bass" to this one.
In Edinburgh the “corner” was the Binns clock at the west end. A favourite meetings place for first dates. On the hour and half hour were the main times. By quarter past and quarter to those stood up would then hook up anyway. Probably all urban myth. Those were the days.
these are cool tho like: did i miss them somehow during the 70s 80s? God speed anyway ps this is REALLY hard music... The timing, the instrumentalsim and even the lyrics are toungue twisting at times.. this band, despite looking like MASSIVE MASSIVE hippies back in the 70's... is a highly taught set up exeleent music Gs
Takes me back to a Lindisfarne Christmas Concert at Newcastle City Hall. Magical night. Magical music then and now - 40 years apart!
This song always brings tears to my eyes , my own reasons,, I'm sure it does the same for others....
You are not alone.....many a Lindisfarne tune has brought a tear to my eye....
I just sat there crying like a fool,this was one of my dad's favourites.Salford's best,gone too soon.
You had better believe it
Cried my eyes out at Northern Kin to this yet again this year... x
Me too, trying to play this in my newly formed band to my girlfriend, now my wife. very misty eyed.
These are the songs I miss hearing on the radio.
Oh the memories.. singing along to this in Ireland this morning 2023..🎵👍
GOD, THE MEMORIES OF A HAPPY,ER TIME COME,S FLOODING BACK JUST LISTENING TO THEM NOW, CHEERS LINDISFARNE FOR ALL THE GREAT TIME,S BACK IN THE DAY. PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 🙏✌️😎🏴
Alan Hull. Fantastic songwriter and musician. RIP Alan.
Pretty sure this was written by Rod Clements
@@Turkishtone Correct! 100% written by Rod!
Pure dead brilliant, Billy chanelling the one and only Jimmy Alan Hull as only he could do. Missed but never forgotten, those Xmas concerts will be with me forever.
Actually Alan Hull only sang harmonies on this, and he didn't write it.
@@lonegroover OK mia culpa but you know what I mean, best band ever those Xmas parties were an absolute amazing party.
There should always be someone somewhere playing the great songs of Lindisfarne & Alan Hull...
There always will.

We meet on the corner in 1972 and we meet again when i leave this world ❤❤
Folk music is awesome especially from lindisfarne
Excellent group with the amazing voice of Billy Mitchell, which was a fantastic version of the song.
He has an excellent voice....Did he join the group after Alan Hull's passing?.....
Great music never dies
2 x 12 string guitars - what a brilliant jangle! i loved this song as a kid, I live in the South of England but it always reminds me of happy times in Northumbria.
Bliddy Bliddy Brilliant x Maybe I have only listened to this 100 times or me? AND sung at the top of my voice every time!!!!

One thing I can put my finger on, the song is way too short! 😉
Wow Beautiful song one of my all time favs thanks for sharing
Still sound great after all those years.
Living in Thailand now and listening to this brings back some great memories from being brought up in the North East
Me too. I am in Japan now.

Agreed.
Something pure mystical & magical sound & feeling to this song. Beautiful
Yes - exactly right x.
Takes you back to an innocence that never truly existed, but was good on paper. Gentle poetry sung with a smile on their face. You must have a heart of flint not to smile listening to a song like this. Good luck Ms O'Reilly x
Simply fabulous, real tear in the eye stuff. Thanks for upload.
reminds me of my teenage. years. great
Wow, majestic. And, for me, like for many others, so so emotional.
i didnt want the song to end so i played it again this was beautiful
Great band who's listening in 2022
Listening 2023

@@mandylunn1949 Listening? I played along in Prague where I now live; but think I'll have to run for home for a bit.
Grew up with this music! Way aye!!

Rest in peace,Bill.
This song is for you.

Serious talent. And the voice is not diminished. Beautiful to watch.

Brings back old memories
Always makes me think of buskers at the monument on Saturday afternoons.

Bubbling like a bairn. Love this place.

Listen to those 12 strings...beautiful.
Great brings back great memories
Simply an all time classic

Pure class! ..... thanks for the upload / video. :-)
Great song off to see lindisfarne story
Brillant Sound!
Takes me back
Lovely ❤️
I saw Lindisfarne live once in Windsor. But they have never recovered from the death of Alan Hull.
Part of the best top 3 all time maybe .this american pie and Nilsson without you....
Great band quality ❤
très jolie chanson
perhaps better than the original....a very great group
Fuck off
It’s good but you can’t beat the original line up....
Great band, played album fog on the Tyne to death.
Happy tears, 😊
In Edinburgh the “corner” was the Binns clock at the west end. A favourite meetings place for first dates. On the hour and half hour were the main times. By quarter past and quarter to those stood up would then hook up anyway. Probably all urban myth. Those were the days.
Wow! Ray(‘s your glasses) Laidlaw!!!!!!
these are cool tho
like: did i miss them somehow during the 70s 80s?
God speed anyway
ps this is REALLY hard music... The timing, the instrumentalsim and even the lyrics are toungue twisting at times.. this band, despite looking like MASSIVE MASSIVE hippies back in the 70's... is a highly taught set up
exeleent music
Gs
For Helen...
fucking awesome
why am i crying
Brilliant
The best kept secret in the world id the NE of England we dont have great wealth but we have every thing else
Still sounds 👍
Superieur 👍👍👍👍
Epic
The name rings a bell thats why i checked them not a bad song by any means
I know he’s not the original but I prefer Billy’s voice over Alan’s especially when they do Lady Eleanor.
I think this is a Rod Clements song... when most of their songs were Alan's ... Good harmonica since that was Ray Jackson's job
Alan Hull was a great songwriter but this. Lindisfarne;s first hit. was written by Rod Clements
yeah same
Woodstock Generation Music
Me dad played a mean harmonica Billy Mitchell x
So did my dad, miss him so much
You do know this about selling drugs. Still a great song.
