How to buy a lot of Steeleye Span (as well as many other good things) at Very Good Prices: Emusic.com, which has a really lovely introductory deal and very reasonable monthly subscriptions.

Three YouTube videos of Garnet Rogers in performance. All from a show called Listen Up, and all, oddly, true stories of one sort or another.

Small Victories. It's about his wife Gail's horse, Two Bitter, whose third foal is the spectacular A Fine Romance.

Night Drive is about Stan.

Right. Convinced that you need some Garnet? Go here. (If you're not convinced yet, go there anyway, there are audio samples.)
