Universal hat kürzlich die Veröffentlichung einer 7-CD-Box von Fairport Convention für ein Release im Juli angekündigt. Darunter sollen wichtige Album-Tracks genauso wie Non-Album-Singles, Radio-Sessions und vorher unveröffentlichtes Live-Material aus Zeiten des klassischen Line-Ups fallen.
Die Sammlung aus den ersten zehn Jahren beginnt mit ihrem 1968er-Debüt bei Polydor über die Island Records-Alben bis zu den zwei Longplayern bei Vertigo („The Bonny Bunch of Roses“ und „Tippers Tales“).
Von den 121 Tracks sind 55 bisher unveröffentlicht inklusive alternativer Takes, Live-Aufnahmen, Single-Mixe und TV-Auftritte sowie anderes. Die Sleeve Notes für dieses Release stammen vom Autor Patrick Humphries. „Come All Ye: The First Ten Years“ wird am 28. Juli 2017 erscheinen.
