Time Will Show The Wiser

I'm on a Joe Boyd jag since picking up his autobiography and its companion CD last week, so here's an early 1968 performance of the first song on the first Fairport Convention album (Emmit Rhodes' "Time Will Show The Wiser") .


Dig the guitar playing of a very young Richard Thompson and the Marty & Grace vocal interplay between Iain Matthews and Judy Dyble. Take time to ridicule the AMG review of this song that misidentifies the male vocalist as Ashley Hutchings (he's the bass player).
This song rocks heartily!
