  • Gottle O'Geer (credited to "Fairport" and to "Fairport Featuring Dave Swarbrick" in the US) is the eleventh studio album by English folk rock band Fairport Convention. The album was released through Island Records in May 1976. The departure of Sandy Denny, Trevor Lucas and Jerry Donahue following Rising for the Moon in 1975 left Fairport Convention reduced to Dave Swarbrick, Dave Pegg and Bruce Rowland, and contractually obliged to produce one more album for Island Records. This album was the result, and Allmusic described it as "listless". The venture was originally intended to be a solo album for Swarbrick, who later said of it: "Gottle O'Geer, I would like to say once and for all was not ever supposed to be a Fairport album. It was to be my solo album, and I wish, along with most other people, that it had remained that way. Chris Blackwell, who to my mind is the richest, clueless, most unscrupulous pillock it was ever my misfortune to meet, had other ideas." As such, the basic line-up of Swarbrick and rhythm section was augmented by numerous guest performers. Simon Nicol was asked to assist in sorting out the project: "... there was plenty on tape but it was a bit of a ragbag really. Peggy and Swarb asked me if I'd come in to engineer it for them. It was huge fun to be involved in. Island just gave us the keys and said 'turn out the lights when you leave' so there were a lot of all-night sessions in the studio." The album's title comes from the reputed inability of less skilled ventriloquists to pronounce "bottle of beer". (en)
  • Gottle O' Geer è un album dei Fairport Convention pubblicato nel 1976. (it)
  • Gottle O'Geer är Fairport Conventions elfte studioalbum, utgivet 1976. Under turnéerna efter skivan Nine sprack gruppen återigen och arbete började på ett soloalbum för Dave Swarbrick, det som utvecklades till Gottle O'Geer (som ska läsas som fylleslang för "Bottle of Beer"). Gruppen var i princip nu en trio med Swarbrick, Pegg och Rowland, och på skivan medverkar en rad musiker, bland annat Martin Carthy, före detta medlemmen Simon Nicol och duon Gallagher & Lyle. Notabelt är att skivan gavs ut under gruppnamnet Fairport, utan tillägget Convention, samt att Simon Nicol agerade inspelningstekniker. För att turnera med låtarna sattes en tillfällig sexmannagrupp ihop. Denna sättning, som bland annat innehöll den bretagnska gitarristen Dan Ar Bras, dokumenterades aldrig på skiva. (sv)
