Original vocalist Jusy Dyble left the group in 1968 and was replaced by Alexandra 'Sandy' Denny. The rest of the line-up remained unchanged, and a move to Island Records saw 'What We Did On Our Holidays' released in January the following year. Denny made her mark immediately with her opening song, 'Fotheringhay'. Her voice, as accomplished as Dyble's but bluesier, added a new bite to the material. As well as Dylan and Joni Mitchell covers, the group began to experiment with traditional folk, covering 'She Moves Through The Fair' and 'Nottamun Town'. The album also includes 'Meet On The Ledge', Fairport's anthem, written by Richard Thompson.
