Julianne has had a close relationship with Fairport Convention, particularly in the early nineties, when she sang live with the group at the Cropredy Festival twice. Julianne has also appeared on two CDs, a 25th Anniversary CD and Circle Dance a charity compilation.

25th Anniversary Concert CD

"There is a version of All About Eve's 'More Than The Blues' on Fairport's 25th Anniversary Concert CD, which I love because it's the only time I've ever sung an All About Eve song with people other than the band! There are some great backing vocals from Peggy and Simon Nicol."

Julianne on the Circle Dance compilation

To my knowledge the only Sandy Denny song that may exist in recorded form with me singing on it would be a charity album called circle dance. I don't actually have a copy of this, so I can't tell you which record label it's on. I think it was a version of 'Who Knows Where The Time Goes'

There is a version of All About Eve's 'More Than The Blues' on Fairport's 25th Anniversary Concert CD, which I love because it's the only time I've ever sung an AAE song with people other than the band! There are some great backing vocals from Peggy and Simon Nicol.

I really do love Sandy Denny's songs too. My favourites are possibly 'Who Knows....' 'The Lady'...... 'Northstar..' and her 'demo' version of 'Red and Gold' that's in the boxed set.

I'd like to cover some of her songs one day, but, perhaps they are too precious and they should be left alone. Do you know what I mean ?"
