Inhalt

The true story of John "Babbacombe" Lee, the man they couldn't hang is the stuff of folk legend. Lee was dubiously sentenced to death in 1885 for the inconclusive murder of his landlady Emma Keyes in Babbacombe near Torquay. Three times at the scaffold the bolt was jolted but the trap door didn't open. Lee's capital sentence was commuted to life imprisonment where he served 23 years before being released to tell his amazing tale. Dave Swarbrick of Fairport Convention found a copy of Lee's papers in a Ware antique shop and was suitably inspired by his story to make it the theme of the band's next long-player.
