[edit] Discography

Does anyone know whether Go Nightly cares and Night's Black Bird are actually the same disc, just one English and one American? I thought they were, only the years are different. The years may be different, however, because I took some of the dates from my music library's records, and some from Fretwork's page. I'm not sure what year is generally used for discographies, and whether that is different from that of libraries. Any input appreciated, and if there's a page for wiki discographies that I've missed, please feel free to point me to it.Makemi 00:39, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

In Alison Crum's viol tutor she gives a discography in which she lists both Go Nightly cares (VC7 90795-2) and Night's Black Bird (VC7 91117-2) which suggests that she thinks they are different...but she could be wrong! Bluewave 08:35, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
It looks like there were two seperate CDs, Goe Nightly Cares and Night's Black Bird, which were later released as a Virgin Veritas Edition "2-for-1" 61561, but which was released under the name Goe Nightly Cares. Hmmm. I think I will leave it as it is for now, since they really are two distinct albums.Makemi 17:58, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Frequent guests

Anonymous editor 62.56.54.109 replaced Paul Nicholson and Christopher Wilson with Timothy Roberts and Jacob Heringman in the guest musicians section.

I have restored Nicholson and Wilson to the list, as I have quite a few Fretwork CDs that credit these two. I haven't deleted the entries for Roberts and Heringman, but I don't have any Fretwork CDs that credit those two musicians. Could someone with the full range of Fret's works :-) check whether Roberts and Heringman have recorded with the group and if not, delete the relevant entries?

Hm. It seems that Jacob Heringman is Susanna Pell's husband, and recorded with Fretwork on the Kingdom of Heaven soundtrack (they misspelled his last name Herringman), and according to his Magnatune page he's recorded with them at other times, but I can't figure out which recording. As for Timothy Roberts, his own page on Early-music says he's "been Fretwork's organist" since 2002, but since I don't have their most recent CDs I can't check that. I think it's very likely that both of them have collaborated with Fretwork. Roberts has clearly worked with them on editions as well. I think the best thing is to leave all of them, since Nicholson and Wilson have undoubtedly worked with them in the past. Mak (talk) 16:31, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
