Advantages: The voice of an Angel ; Title track being one of the best folk rock songs Disadvantages: Some weak tracks ; Not on the same par as Fairport Convention or Fotheringay
...'s crowning glory. Another over produced song but the way Sandy's voice is doubled up on the producing fits in quite well with the various backing instruments. The song pretty well defines what a closing song should be, only a handful of lyrical lines sang in a different fashion to the rest of the album and trailing off nicely with the majority of the track consisting of a mellow yet jiggy instrumental.
' Missed the morning too, didn't rise before noon.
She's a lazy lady today.
Always yawning, you with your eyes on the moon.
You're a crazy lady I'd say, da da da.'
BONUS TRACKS:
The remastered version of this album does offer a handful of outtakes from the original recording session, the first being a slightly more up beat version of the title track 'Late November'. ' Walking the floor all over you' is quite an angry protest...

Advantages: A step back in time. Disadvantages: Not known enough today.
...was to be a legendary career in the music that she loved, shaping the future of Fairport Convention in an unforgettable manner, and being the voice that people from the sixties remember as strong, vibrant and melodic.

..., which may seem like a rip-off, but a) this was a pretty common in the seventies and b) you can probably get this album for a fiver or less if you shop around, so don't cry about it. Anyway, the songs are thus:
MOVIN' OUT (ANTHONY'S SONG)
A tale of boredom with small-town life. Anthony works in the local grocery store just so he can save enough money to leave, which, ultimately, he does. On motorbike. Which he revs up at the end of the song like he's Meatloaf or something. But he has to go, because he doesn't want to end up like the decrepit old local bobby Sergeant O'Leary, who has to supplement his measly income with a bar job so he can afford a nice car. "And he's trading in his Chevy for a Cadillac…and if he can't drive with a broken back, at least he can polish the fenders" is a great line and just one reason why I bloody love...
