On our honeymoon in 1986 my wife and I got to enjoy the music of Clive and Chris on the Fairport Festival/traditional music tour that Richard Thompson's wife Nancy Covey runs. Clive and Chris entertained our tour group in an intimate late evening performance in our hotel lounge on the first night of the tour in London. Earlier in the evening they had come along with our group for a dinner and boat trip on the Thames, that had included traditional music on the boat. A year or two later we saw them when they were on a U.S. tour and played the Towne Crier Cafe near us in NY state. We brought them a bouquet of flowers to thank them for the great time they had shown our tour group, and that show terrific as well!
