Barry Dransfield
Barry Dransfield is an English folk singer, fiddler, cellist and guitarist. He has appeared as a session musician on numerous albums by other artists, and has released his own albums as well. ''Lord of All I Behold'' (1971) was voted ''Melody Maker'' folk album of the year. His 1972 album for Polydor, called simply ''Barry Dransfield'', was voted the rarest folk album in ''Record Hunter'', worth approximately £400. Unlike most fiddlers (but like some Appalachian players) he is comfortable playing in the "off the chest" position, instead of under the chin.
Together with his brother Robin Dransfield, he was a member of a bluegrass/old-time band while still in his teens. He generally avoids electric instruments, but is innovative nevertheless. The instrumental "Blacksmith", on ''Fiddler's Dream'', is a complex set of variations in Romantic Paganini style, with no obvious relation to the song "Blacksmith", but ending with a double-tracked voice of Dransfield singing the opening line, "Oh, A Blacksmith Courted Me". ''Fiddler's Dream'' has been re-issued on Castle with many bonus tracks.
He is 71.
== In films ==
Dransfield has composed music for several films for TV and the wide screen: ''S.O.S. Titanic'', ''Adelaide Harris'', ''Play Away'', ''Samson an Delilah'' (1985), ''Ballymena Opera House'' and ''The Wreck of the Julie Plante'' (1985). He acted the part of the blind fiddler in ''The Bounty'' (1984) (with Mel Gibson and Anthony Hopkins). In 1986, he changed career to become a so-called "Fiddle Doctor", repairing violins and cellos. In 1994, he joined the Steeleye Span UK tour.
