Roy Harper was on Joolz Hollands' show last week. For me, one of the finest voices.

This is the track that does it for me:

I saw him in Hyde Park sometime in the late sixties and have loved his stuff ever since. Here is The Same Old Rock with Jimmy Page on acoustic guitar.

Another Day is one of the most beautiful songs ever penned.

When and Old Cricketer Leaves the Crease is by and far the best song about cricket ever penned.

His guitar playing is some of the finest I've ever heard.

Hats off to Harper!

edit... he's even been on breakfast TV... bloody sell out!

Is his HQ album available without paying shedloads of money?

I bought mine in vinyl, new in 1975 at the prevailing price. Probably less than £2.

The pops and crackles add to the atmosphere when I play it.

I was going to suggest Amazon then I saw their stratospheric price.

I wouldn't usually condone this type of thing but seeing as it's out of print and being sold at astronomical prices... try here (edit) ... actually here

It's being re-packaged and re-released soon. No exact date as yet.

Thank you Vernon, Monty and Ian. Yes, £50 for a CD does seem a bit steep. I suspect that the dodgy download route is a bit beyond my technical expertise, so I may well hang on until HQ is re-released. Thanks again.
