Christmas Day In The Morning - Pyewackett - Live 1987

Had to do a little restoration work from the original 34-year-old tape. This is maybe a rare video of one of the lesser-known British folk bands, Pyewackett! Remembered for updating 17th - 18th-century songs with modern harmonies and inventive instrumentation. While none of their four albums are easy to find, the search is worth it. The group's sense of fun and reverence for musical traditions allowed them to bring ancient tunes to life. Pyewackett took their name from an imp that a 17th century Essex woman claimed possessed her. According to legendary witch-hunter Matthew Hopkins, it was a name that "no mortal could invent." Recorded 27th June 1987 -- Wheal Rose, Skinners Bottom Festival, nr Truro, Cornwall. Pyewackett was: Ian Blake — Clarinet, recorders, soprano sax, bass guitar, piano, keyboards, vocals Rosie Cross — Bassoon, hammer dulcimer, tambourine, vocals Mark Emerson — Violin, viola, keyboards, drum, whistle, vocals Bill Martin — Guitar, accordion, piano, keyboards, vocals Laurie Harper — Violin, mandolin, mandola, bass guitar, vocals
