&lt;h2&gt;Martin Lawrence&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;28th March, 2013&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Just reported on the Barclay James Harvest Featuring Les Holroyd Facebook page:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are deeply saddened to announce the sudden death of our friend and sound engineer Martin Lawrence.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Les, Mike, Steve, Colin, Louie, Olli, Chris, Tino, Noz, Rajko, Alex, Sabine, Chrissie, Charlene and Markus&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Very shocked to hear this news. Martin, of course, was not only a sound engineer, but also the co-producer of &lt;i&gt;XII&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Eyes Of The Universe&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Turn Of The Tide&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Caught In The Light&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Nexus&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sincere condolences to his friends and family.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;



&lt;h2&gt;New JLBJH Single out on April 8th!&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;28th March, 2013&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="jpg/unreservedly.jpg" width="500" height="500" alt="Unreservedly Yours single" title="Unreservedly Yours single" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;


&lt;p&gt;"Unreservedly Yours" will be featured on the band's new album &lt;i&gt;North&lt;/i&gt;, to be released both physically and digitally in September 2013 on the Esoteric Antenna label. Featuring John Lees (vocals, guitars), Craig Fletcher (vocals, bass), Jez Smith (keyboards, vocals) and Kevin Whitehead (drums, percussion), the song and forthcoming album are very much group efforts, in the tradition of classic BJH, with every track being written specifically for the album by all four members of the band.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This single will be download-only, and you can pre-order it now from the links below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;img src="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/jpg/Woollypaintingmedium.jpg" width="500" height="353" alt="Painting of Woolly Wolstenholme" title="Painting of Woolly Wolstenholme" border="0" align="right" / hspace="5"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On the second anniversary of Woolly's passing, we are very pleased to announce that the recent charity raffle raised a grand total of £517.00, which has now been donated to the Mental Health Foundation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The winner of the Giclée Fine Art Print, signed by all of the other John Lees' Barclay James Harvest band members, is John Maas from The Netherlands.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our grateful thanks go to Stuart Howard for donating the print, and especially to all of you who bought raffle tickets for your generosity.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks to you, the total amount donated to the &lt;a href="http://www.justgiving.com/WoollyWolstenholme"&gt;Woolly Wolstenholme JustGiving page&lt;/a&gt; has now passed £3,000 - a great boost for the cause of helping people with mental health issues, and a fitting tribute to Woolly today.&lt;/p&gt;

The new version includes the same bonus tracks as the previous remaster (single edits of "Sperratus", "Rock n' Roll Lady", "Capricorn" and "Play To The World"), and will be issued in a gatefold digipack with revised liner notes.

&lt;h2&gt;Woolly Wolstenholme Charity Raffle&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th November, 2012&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A painting of Woolly, commissioned by BJH fan Stuart Howard, was presented to John at the recent JLBJH concert in Bristol. Stuart also took along a very high quality Giclée Fine Art Print of the painting, which all of the band members signed on the night, and has very kindly donated this to be raffled by us, with all proceeds going to the Mental Health Foundation charity. The print measures approximately 59 x 42cm, and will be sent to the winner of the raffle rolled in a strong cardboard tube, ready for framing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The raffle is open from now until six p.m. UK time on the closing date of Wednesday, December 12th, and tickets cost just £1.00 each, from the &lt;a href="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/WW-raffle.htm"&gt;BJH web site Charity Raffle page&lt;/a&gt;, where you can also see a picture of the print.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;JLBJH October Concerts - Three Cancellations&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;9th October, 2012&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great regret that due to contractual and production difficulties beyond the control of the group and management, John Lees' Barclay James Harvest are unable to perform at the following concerts on the forthcoming UK tour:&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;HMV Picturehouse, Edinburgh - Wednesday, 17th October, 2012&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;The University of East Anglia, Norwich - Saturday, 27th October, 2012&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;  
&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;To say that John, Jez, Craig and Kevin are disappointed is a huge understatement. John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing the following concerts:&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;HMV Ritz, Manchester - Friday, 19th October, 2012&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Crystal Palace Garden Party cancelled&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;29th May, 2012&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately the Crystal Palace Garden Party scheduled for June 23rd has had to be cancelled because of structural/safety issues with the stage. Here's a message from the organisers:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is with great disappointment that I must notify you guys that the Crystal Palace Garden Party will not now be able to go ahead.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it was realised that a 1.5 ton scissor lift truck must come on to the stage to erect the sails and rigging some cursory tests were made to the structure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There was some obvious weather wear to the stage and the temporary boards that were put down some time ago ... On closer examination it seemed there might be a problem&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;a structural engineer was called and rotten joists checked etc it was discovered the delapidation was much worse than was at first thought&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Any sign off on safety or otherwise of the structure cannot be made possibly for several weeks or more...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Under other circumstances postponement to a new date would be an obvious option but due to the Olympics, no Police support can be used until after the Paralympics and after then, the park already has other events in the diary up to the end of September after which it is unfeasible to have an outdoor concert...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To me this represented an opportunity that I have been working towards for several years and have been working solidly over 5 months 7 days per week!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I can hardly put into words the frustration I feel...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yours sincerely and with a heavy heart&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mike Fox&lt;br&gt;
Crystal Palace Garden Party Ltd&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br&gt;


&lt;p&gt;JLBJH are very disappointed at this turn of events, but obviously it's out of their hands.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For refunds, please contact the agency where you bought your tickets - any problems with getting refunds, please let us know.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To mark the anniversary of Woolly's passing, here is another painting by Miss Mio Hashimoto (Wasabi san) from Japan. Here are Mio's own words about the painting:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi, I'm Mio Hashimoto, thank you for seeing my BJH &amp; Woolly's fan arts! I hope you like it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nostalgic autumn landscape crossed my mind when I listened to BJH's music for the first time. I thought that warm and soft colors are suitable for the band. I represent the mellow sound of BJH's music using these colors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, I added Japanese art styles to these artworks. Because I inspired by them any time and I want to try to fusion of Japanese styles and western culture.
Anyway, I was so pleased to draw it, thanks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can see more of Mio's work at &lt;a href="http://wasawasawa.deviantart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://wasawasawa.deviantart.com/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The waistcoat has been signed and dated with an indelible fabric pen by John Lees and the other members of John Lees' Barclay James Harvest - Kev Whitehead, Jez Smith and Craig Fletcher - at the band's concert in Holmfirth last weekend. The grey waistcoat is size 10 - 12, has gold and black coloured metal buttons and is fully lined with a beautiful material decorated with sparkly silver butterflies, stars and flowers (hand wash only, because of the glitter on the lining).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Just wanted to share with you this stunning painting, sent to us by our good friend Masakazu Fujita, and painted by Miss Mio Hashimoto (Wasabi san), who is a talented animation artist from Japan.

&lt;p&gt;A new compilation album is out now, featuring rare radio broadcasts from the late 60s, amongst which is BJH's 1968 BBC session recording of "Night". The compiler has managed to track down off-air recordings of the original programmes, made by enthusiasts with reel-to-reel tape recorders, and has included snippets of comments from contemporary DJs, such as John Peel enthusing about BJH.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The LP version of the album marks the debut appearance of "Night" on vinyl, although the recording (minus Peel's comments) did appear on the 2002 remastered CD of the band's debut album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The album also includes rarities from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Yardbirds, Deep Purple and more. The LP and CD are available direct from the record label's web site, at &lt;a href="http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk"&gt;http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;, or you can order them through online retailers such as Spin CDs or Amazon.&lt;/p&gt;

Meanwhile, those of you who are still waiting for the autographed DVDs from the Metropolis show should receive them very soon, as the band have been busy signing the inserts. Apologies for the long delay, which was completely out of the band's control.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th December, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great sadness that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces the passing of Woolly Wolstenholme. In recent weeks Woolly's mental health had taken a turn for the worse and sadly he took his own life on Monday 13th December 2010. As you can imagine, John, Craig, Jez and Kevin and everyone associated with the band are stunned that a shining light of Barclay James Harvest is no longer with us. In this difficult time our thoughts are with Woolly's partner, Sue. We would ask all of Woolly's fans to remember his incredible contribution to popular music and his unique presence on stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Mandalaband Albums Remastered and Remixed&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;13th October, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;img src="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/jpg/resurrect.jpg" alt="Mandalaband Resurrection 2CD digipack" title="Mandalaband Resurrection 2CD digipack" align="left" width="250" height="263" hspace="20"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first two Mandalaband albums, &lt;i&gt;Mandalaband&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt;, have been completely remixed and remastered by David Rohl from the original multi-track master tapes, and will be made available as a double CD digipack in November.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The debut album dates from 1975 and the band included most of the musicians who went on to form Sad Café. 1978's &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt; featured a host of stars, amongst whom were all four members of Barclay James Harvest, plus Justin Hayward, Maddy Prior, 10cc, Sad Café and many more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The set comes with previously unreleased demos and alternative versions for both albums, and will be issued by David's own label, Legend Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Details of the tracklisting and how to pre-order the set can be found at the &lt;a href="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/swallow.htm"&gt;online shop&lt;/a&gt; on this site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;EMI Records will issue a Deluxe Edition of &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; on January 31st, 2011, in time for the 40th anniversary of the release of the original album, which first appeared in February 1971. The 2CD set will include a new 5.1 surround mix of the album as well as previously unreleased versions of some of the songs from the album - a full tracklist will follow soon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing a one-off concert at &lt;a href="http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=BUXTONOPERA&amp;organ_val=3225&amp;pid=6812889"&gt;Buxton Opera House&lt;/a&gt; on Saturday, February 19th, which will also form part of the 40th anniversary celebrations. The band plan to play a selection of songs from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; at the concert, as well as other classics, old and new.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally (for now!) John gave an extensive interview about the album to &lt;i&gt;Classic Rock Presents Prog&lt;/i&gt; yesterday, and that will appear soon, possibly in the next edition. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;


&lt;p&gt;To mark the anniversary of Woolly's passing, here is another painting by Miss Mio Hashimoto (Wasabi san) from Japan. Here are Mio's own words about the painting:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi, I'm Mio Hashimoto, thank you for seeing my BJH &amp; Woolly's fan arts! I hope you like it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nostalgic autumn landscape crossed my mind when I listened to BJH's music for the first time. I thought that warm and soft colors are suitable for the band. I represent the mellow sound of BJH's music using these colors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, I added Japanese art styles to these artworks. Because I inspired by them any time and I want to try to fusion of Japanese styles and western culture.
Anyway, I was so pleased to draw it, thanks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can see more of Mio's work at &lt;a href="http://wasawasawa.deviantart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://wasawasawa.deviantart.com/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now up for auction on eBay, a unique waistcoat with hand-stitched butterfly inspired by the classic Barclay James Harvest album artwork from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Baby James Harvest&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Early Morning Onwards&lt;/i&gt;. The waistcoat has been signed and dated with an indelible fabric pen by John Lees and the other members of John Lees' Barclay James Harvest - Kev Whitehead, Jez Smith and Craig Fletcher - at the band's concert in Holmfirth last weekend. The grey waistcoat is size 10 - 12, has gold and black coloured metal buttons and is fully lined with a beautiful material decorated with sparkly silver butterflies, stars and flowers (hand wash only, because of the glitter on the lining).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As those of you who were at the recent Holmfirth or Leamington concerts will know, John is currently sporting a moustache in support of the Movember charity appeal, the aim of which is to
raise vital funds and awareness for mens health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men. All proceeds from this auction will be donated to John's Movember fund - get a
perfect one-off Christmas gift and give to charity at the same time!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Official German chart company Media Control has named BJH's &lt;i&gt;Gone To Earth&lt;/i&gt; the third most successful chart album ever in Germany! Their chart is based on points given for the number of weeks spent on the official chart and the positions reached. Number one is Pink Floyd's &lt;i&gt;Wish You Were Here&lt;/i&gt; (the new remastered edition of which has just re-entered the German album chart at No. 4), and second was German schlager singer Andrea Berg's &lt;i&gt;Best Of&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;img src="jpg/radiotymes.jpg" align="left" width="349" height="349" hspace="20"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A new compilation album is out now, featuring rare radio broadcasts from the late 60s, amongst which is BJH's 1968 BBC session recording of "Night". The compiler has managed to track down off-air recordings of the original programmes, made by enthusiasts with reel-to-reel tape recorders, and has included snippets of comments from contemporary DJs, such as John Peel enthusing about BJH.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The LP version of the album marks the debut appearance of "Night" on vinyl, although the recording (minus Peel's comments) did appear on the 2002 remastered CD of the band's debut album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The album also includes rarities from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Yardbirds, Deep Purple and more. The LP and CD are available direct from the record label's web site, at &lt;a href="http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk"&gt;http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;, or you can order them through online retailers such as Spin CDs or Amazon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Woolly Wolstenholme&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th December, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great sadness that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces the passing of Woolly Wolstenholme. In recent weeks Woolly's mental health had taken a turn for the worse and sadly he took his own life on Monday 13th December 2010. As you can imagine, John, Craig, Jez and Kevin and everyone associated with the band are stunned that a shining light of Barclay James Harvest is no longer with us. In this difficult time our thoughts are with Woolly's partner, Sue. We would ask all of Woolly's fans to remember his incredible contribution to popular music and his unique presence on stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;i&gt;Gone To Earth&lt;/i&gt; Named Third Most Successful German LP - Ever!&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2011&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;img src="jpg/gone.jpg" align="right" width="350" height="350" hspace="20"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Official German chart company Media Control has named BJH's &lt;i&gt;Gone To Earth&lt;/i&gt; the third most successful chart album ever in Germany! Their chart is based on points given for the number of weeks spent on the official chart and the positions reached. Number one is Pink Floyd's &lt;i&gt;Wish You Were Here&lt;/i&gt; (the new remastered edition of which has just re-entered the German album chart at No. 4), and second was German schlager singer Andrea Berg's &lt;i&gt;Best Of&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;img src="jpg/radiotymes.jpg" align="left" width="349" height="349" hspace="20"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A new compilation album is out now, featuring rare radio broadcasts from the late 60s, amongst which is BJH's 1968 BBC session recording of "Night". The compiler has managed to track down off-air recordings of the original programmes, made by enthusiasts with reel-to-reel tape recorders, and has included snippets of comments from contemporary DJs, such as John Peel enthusing about BJH.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The LP version of the album marks the debut appearance of "Night" on vinyl, although the recording (minus Peel's comments) did appear on the 2002 remastered CD of the band's debut album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The album also includes rarities from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Yardbirds, Deep Purple and more. The LP and CD are available direct from the record label's web site, at &lt;a href="http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk"&gt;http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;, or you can order them through online retailers such as Spin CDs or Amazon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be returning to the Holmfirth Picturedrome for a live show on November 19th, 2011.

Meanwhile, those of you who are still waiting for the autographed DVDs from the Metropolis show should receive them very soon, as the band have been busy signing the inserts.

&lt;h2&gt;Woolly Wolstenholme&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th December, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great sadness that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces the passing of Woolly Wolstenholme. In recent weeks Woolly's mental health had taken a turn for the worse and sadly he took his own life on Monday 13th December 2010. As you can imagine, John, Craig, Jez and Kevin and everyone associated with the band are stunned that a shining light of Barclay James Harvest is no longer with us. In this difficult time our thoughts are with Woolly's partner, Sue. We would ask all of Woolly's fans to remember his incredible contribution to popular music and his unique presence on stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th December, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great sadness that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces the passing of Woolly Wolstenholme. In recent weeks Woolly's mental health had taken a turn for the worse and sadly he took his own life on Monday 13th December 2010. As you can imagine, John, Craig, Jez and Kevin and everyone associated with the band are stunned that a shining light of Barclay James Harvest is no longer with us. In this difficult time our thoughts are with Woolly's partner, Sue. We would ask all of Woolly's fans to remember his incredible contribution to popular music and his unique presence on stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Mandalaband Albums Remastered and Remixed&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;13th October, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first two Mandalaband albums, &lt;i&gt;Mandalaband&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt;, have been completely remixed and remastered by David Rohl from the original multi-track master tapes, and will be made available as a double CD digipack in November.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The debut album dates from 1975 and the band included most of the musicians who went on to form Sad Caf. 1978's &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt; featured a host of stars, amongst whom were all four members of Barclay James Harvest, plus Justin Hayward, Maddy Prior, 10cc, Sad Caf and many more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The set comes with previously unreleased demos and alternative versions for both albums, and will be issued by David's own label, Legend Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Details of the tracklisting and how to pre-order the set can be found at the &lt;a href="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/swallow.htm"&gt;online shop&lt;/a&gt; on this site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;EMI Records will issue a Deluxe Edition of &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; on January 31st, 2011, in time for the 40th anniversary of the release of the original album, which first appeared in February 1971. The 2CD set will include a new 5.1 surround mix of the album as well as previously unreleased versions of some of the songs from the album - a full tracklist will follow soon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing a one-off concert at &lt;a href="http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=BUXTONOPERA&amp;organ_val=3225&amp;pid=6812889"&gt;Buxton Opera House&lt;/a&gt; on Saturday, February 19th, which will also form part of the 40th anniversary celebrations. The band plan to play a selection of songs from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; at the concert, as well as other classics, old and new.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally (for now!) John gave an extensive interview about the album to &lt;i&gt;Classic Rock Presents Prog&lt;/i&gt; yesterday, and that will appear soon, possibly in the next edition. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Woolly Wolstenholme&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th December, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with great sadness that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces the passing of Woolly Wolstenholme. In recent weeks Woolly's mental health had taken a turn for the worse and sadly he took his own life on Monday 13th December 2010. As you can imagine, John, Craig, Jez and Kevin and everyone associated with the band are stunned that a shining light of Barclay James Harvest is no longer with us. In this difficult time our thoughts are with Woolly's partner, Sue. We would ask all of Woolly's fans to remember his incredible contribution to popular music and his unique presence on stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first two Mandalaband albums, &lt;i&gt;Mandalaband&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt;, have been completely remixed and remastered by David Rohl from the original multi-track master tapes, and will be made available as a double CD digipack in November.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The debut album dates from 1975 and the band included most of the musicians who went on to form Sad Caf. 1978's &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt; featured a host of stars, amongst whom were all four members of Barclay James Harvest, plus Justin Hayward, Maddy Prior, 10cc, Sad Caf and many more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The set comes with previously unreleased demos and alternative versions for both albums, and will be issued by David's own label, Legend Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Important Announcement About The Upcoming JLBJH UK Concerts:&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;16th November, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is with regret that John Lees' Barclay James Harvest announces that Woolly Wolstenholme will not be able to participate in the forthcoming UK concerts at the end of this month. Following doctor's advice, Woolly has been ordered to rest after suffering from nervous exhaustion. Woolly and the band are deeply disappointed that he won't be able to perform in the forthcoming shows, but everyone involved, including Woolly, feel that the concerts should still take place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The group are looking forward to performing in Britain again and have a few surprises in store in terms of the set list, including the performance of a new song. Everyone wishes Woolly a speedy recovery and we're looking forward to having him back with the band as soon as he is well enough. John, Craig, Jez and Kevin are looking forward to seeing you all on tour at the end of this month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Mandalaband Albums Remastered and Remixed&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first two Mandalaband albums, &lt;i&gt;Mandalaband&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt;, have been completely remixed and remastered by David Rohl from the original multi-track master tapes, and will be made available as a double CD digipack in November.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The debut album dates from 1975 and the band included most of the musicians who went on to form Sad Caf. 1978's &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt; featured a host of stars, amongst whom were all four members of Barclay James Harvest, plus Justin Hayward, Maddy Prior, 10cc, Sad Caf and many more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The set comes with previously unreleased demos and alternative versions for both albums, and will be issued by David's own label, Legend Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Details of the tracklisting and how to pre-order the set can be found at the &lt;a href="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/swallow.htm"&gt;online shop&lt;/a&gt; on this site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;EMI Records will issue a Deluxe Edition of &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; on January 31st, 2011, in time for the 40th anniversary of the release of the original album, which first appeared in February 1971. The 2CD set will include a new 5.1 surround mix of the album as well as previously unreleased versions of some of the songs from the album - a full tracklist will follow soon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing a one-off concert at &lt;a href="http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=BUXTONOPERA&amp;organ_val=3225&amp;pid=6812889"&gt;Buxton Opera House&lt;/a&gt; on Saturday, February 19th, which will also form part of the 40th anniversary celebrations. The band plan to play a selection of songs from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; at the concert, as well as other classics, old and new.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally (for now!) John gave an extensive interview about the album to &lt;i&gt;Classic Rock Presents Prog&lt;/i&gt; yesterday, and that will appear soon, possibly in the next edition. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first two Mandalaband albums, &lt;i&gt;Mandalaband&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt;, have been completely remixed and remastered by David Rohl from the original multi-track master tapes, and will be made available as a double CD digipack in November.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The debut album dates from 1975 and the band included most of the musicians who went on to form Sad Caf. 1978's &lt;i&gt;The Eye Of Wendor&lt;/i&gt; featured a host of stars, amongst whom were all four members of Barclay James Harvest, plus Justin Hayward, Maddy Prior, 10cc, Sad Caf and many more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The set comes with previously unreleased demos and alternative versions for both albums, and will be issued by David's own label, Legend Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Details of the tracklisting and how to pre-order the set can be found at the &lt;a href="http://www.bjharvest.co.uk/swallow.htm"&gt;online shop&lt;/a&gt; on this site.&lt;/p&gt;

The band plan to play a selection of songs from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; at the concert, as well as other classics, old and new.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally (for now!) John gave an extensive interview about the album to &lt;i&gt;Classic Rock Presents Prog&lt;/i&gt; yesterday, and that will appear soon, possibly in the next edition. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;November 26: &lt;a href="http://www.o2academyislington.co.uk/event/15991/john-lees-barclay-james-harvest-tickets/Details"&gt;London Islington O2 Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The JLBJH concert on 24th November at Limbourg (Belgium) Le Kursaal has been moved to Verviers, Spirit of 66 at very short notice. Naturally, tickets for the show stay valid and should also still be available, and the date is the same.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Once Again 40th Anniversary Celebrations&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;17th September, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;EMI Records will issue a Deluxe Edition of &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; on January 31st, 2011, in time for the 40th anniversary of the release of the original album, which first appeared in February 1971. The 2CD set will include a new 5.1 surround mix of the album as well as previously unreleased versions of some of the songs from the album - a full tracklist will follow soon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing a one-off concert at &lt;a href="http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=BUXTONOPERA&amp;organ_val=3225&amp;pid=6812889"&gt;Buxton Opera House&lt;/a&gt; on Saturday, February 19th, which will also form part of the 40th anniversary celebrations. The band plan to play a selection of songs from &lt;i&gt;Once Again&lt;/i&gt; at the concert, as well as other classics, old and new.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally (for now!) John gave an extensive interview about the album to &lt;i&gt;Classic Rock Presents Prog&lt;/i&gt; yesterday, and that will appear soon, possibly in the next edition. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;November 26: &lt;a href="http://www.o2academyislington.co.uk/event/15991/john-lees-barclay-james-harvest-tickets/Details"&gt;London Islington O2 Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the

&lt;p&gt;November 26: &lt;a href="http://www.o2academyislington.co.uk/event/15991/john-lees-barclay-james-harvest-tickets/Details"&gt;London Islington O2 Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest have just confirmed three UK dates for November 2010, as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;November 26: &lt;a href="http://www.o2academyislington.co.uk/event/15991/john-lees-barclay-james-harvest-tickets/Details"&gt;London Islington O2 Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The JLBJH concert on 24th November at Limbourg (Belgium) Le Kursaal has been moved to Verviers, Spirit of 66 at very short notice. Naturally, tickets for the show stay valid and should also still be available, and the date is the same.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The JLBJH concert on 17th November at Basel Grand Casino is now completely sold out. We believe that there are still some tickets left for the show at Bern's Mhle Hunziken the next night, but you may need to hurry!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;14th October, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We were very sorry to hear of the death on Monday from Motor Neurone Disease of Ryszard Szafranski, who wrote the sleeve notes for &lt;i&gt;Another Arable Parable&lt;/i&gt;, the first ever CD compilation of BJH's Harvest material.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;JLBJH Confirm UK Dates&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;27th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest have just confirmed three UK dates for November 2010, as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;November 26: &lt;a href="http://www.o2academyislington.co.uk/event/15991/john-lees-barclay-james-harvest-tickets/Details"&gt;London Islington O2 Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
November 27: Manchester Academy (order online through &lt;a href="https://secure.ticketline.co.uk/search/siteSearch?artist=barclay+james+harvest&amp;venue=venue+%2F+location"&gt;Ticketline&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br&gt;

&lt;br&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Berlin on DVD&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At long last, we're delighted to announce that &lt;i&gt;A Concert For The People - Berlin&lt;/i&gt; will be officially issued on DVD in August by Eagle Vision. The release will mark the 30th anniversary of the original concert which BJH gave to an estimated audience of 175,000 people on the steps of the Reichstag in what was then West Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bad news is that, in spite of a thorough search by all concerned, it has proved impossible to find any unreleased footage from the concert. However, the good news is that the original footage which appeared on the old VHS video will be supplemented by the five rarely-seen videos which the band made for selected tracks from the &lt;i&gt;Time Honoured Ghosts&lt;/i&gt; album.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the same time, Esoteric Recordings will reissue a repackaged 11-track version of the &lt;i&gt;Berlin&lt;/i&gt; CD. More details, including pricing and how to pre-order the DVD, will follow shortly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;JLBJH To Play Portuguese Festival&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;18th May, 2010&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John Lees' Barclay James Harvest will be performing a one-off live concert in Portugal in July, headlining at the Douro Rock and Blues Festival in Gaia/Porto, on July 10th. The Yardbirds will also be appearing, plus more acts yet to be confirmed. See &lt;a href="http://www.slimsblues.com"&gt;http://www.slimsblues.com&lt;/a&gt; for more info.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A 3CD mini box set of BJH's Polydor material has been released by Esoteric Recordings.

&lt;p&gt;The JLBJH concert on 24th November at Limbourg (Belgium) Le Kursaal has been moved to Verviers, Spirit of 66 at very short notice. Naturally, tickets for the show stay valid and should also still be available, and the date is the same.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We were very sorry to hear of the death on Monday from Motor Neurone Disease of Ryszard Szafranski, who wrote the sleeve notes for &lt;i&gt;Another Arable Parable&lt;/i&gt;, the first ever CD compilation of BJH's Harvest material.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Latest Information on Shrewsbury Refunds&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class="newsdate"&gt;15th September, 2009&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Latest update from Moray Council:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officers from Moray Council Trading Standards met with Brian Davies of New
Dawn Events week ending 11 September 2009. The reason given by him for the
cancellation of the Memories of Woodstock and Crathes Castle events was a
lack of ticket sales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mr Davies has stated that the delay in refunds to consumers who paid using
the Paypal facility has been due to a technical issue in funding the
companies Paypal account. He has however advised that steps have been taken
which should allow refunds to commence by 30 September 2009. In addition Mr
Davies has stated that he is processing approximately 15 credit card payment
refunds per day and he intends to complete the process by 30 September 2009.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Moray Council Trading Standards will continue to monitor the situation
however, despite a desire to help, we are not in a position to accept any
further direct contact from consumers through out the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should you have written to Mr Davies and failed to receive a reply, our
advice is to contact Trading Standards in your home area and seek help with
trying to obtain a refund through your credit card provider if payment was
made by this method, or with lodging a Small Claim in the appropriate court
system. This advice is given not due to a lack of willingness to help on the
part of Moray Council Trading Standards Department, but due to the
limitations placed on our role as a result of Civil Legislation.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
