Meet on the ledge é a canção que, habitualmente, encerra os concertos de reunião dos Fairport Convention, o que aconteceu de novo em All Star, no Barbican Hall em Londres em 18 de Julho (o blogueiro, por saber não chegar a horas, optou por ir a outro local, com muita pena sua). Meet on the ledge, composta por Richard Thompson, é uma espécie de hino da banda. Os Fairport Convention actuaram com os seus membros originais: Simon Nicol, Richard Thompson, Iain Matthews, Ashley Hutchings, Dave Mattacks (aqui a substituir Martin Lamble) e Dave Pegg no baixo. Com Chris Leslie no violino. No coro, estiveram Judy Dyble (vocalista da banda antes de Sandy Denny), Chris While, Kellie While, Linde Nijland (que tem cantado canções de Sandy Denny), Kamila Thompson, Linda Thompson e Teddy Thompson (vídeo de noordfolk).
We used to say / That come the day / We'd all be making songs / Or finding better words / These ideas never lasted long. /The way is up / Along the road / The air is growing thin / Too many friends who tried / Were blown off this mountain with the wind. / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge / When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge / If you really mean it, it all comes 'round again. / Yet now I see / I'm all alone / But that's the only way to be /You'll have your chance again / Then you can do the work for me. / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge / When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge /If you really mean it, it all comes 'round again. / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge / When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends / Meet on the ledge / We're gonna meet on the ledge / If you really mean it, it all comes 'round again.
Outro ângulo da mesma interpretação (vídeo de zwicky1979).
E Fotheringay, cantado pela dinamarquesa Linde Nijland (vídeo de noordfolk).
Ao concerto, faltaram evidentemente Sandy Denny (desaparecida em 1978, com 31 anos), Trevor George Lucas (o marido dela, membro inicial dos Fairport Convention e dos Fotheringay, falecido em 1989 de ataque de coração) e Georgia, a filha de ambos.
