Mini Richard Carpenter/Robin of Sherwood Tribute

[rusty_armour]

I wanted to honour both Richard Carpenter and Robin of Sherwood in some way, but I'm sick at the moment and haven't made it far beyond my bed today. Fortunately, I was able to find what I feel is a fitting tribute to both the man and his show through this vid on YouTube:

It is so very sad. I listened to the soundtrack on the train last night and got maudlin. Will watch did when I'm not on a train with dodgy signal.

Nothing's forgotten.

Get well soon my dear.

I had a similar experience. I listened to the soundtrack at work and started feeling sniffy myself. However, as I was already reaching for a tissue every two minutes, I don't think my co-workers would have noticed if I had succumbed to tears. ;-) I've been wanting to watch an episode, but I think I'll wait till my brain is working well enough to absorb it properly. Anywaaaaay, I hope you enjoy the vid when you watch it. I'm sure you've probably seen it before, but I think it's worth rewatching.

Get well soon my dear.

Oh, thank you, Alys. I'll do my best.

Did you get a chance to read Steve's piece?

It's a lovely tribute and reminded me again how groundbreaking RoS was.

Thank you so much, Alys! I didn't know about this, so went to check out the post as soon as I saw your comment. It's an absolutely beautiful tribute that points out the kind of impact RoS had on both viewers and the Robin Hood legend in general. I made sure to leave a comment for Steve and included a link to his wonderful post on that first entry (http://rusty-armour.livejournal.com/97591.html) I wrote about Richard Carpenter.

Thank you for doing this. I was so sorry to hear about Kip; and sorry also to hear that you're sick. I hope you'll be better soon.

Thank you for doing this. I was so sorry to hear about Kip.

I think his death came as a shock to all of us, despite his age. And posting some kind of tribute vid seemed like the least I could do.

and sorry also to hear that you're sick. I hope you'll be better soon.

Thank you, hemulenofdoom. I know you haven't been well either, so I hope you also recover quickly if you're still sick.

So beautiful. Thanks :)

I'm glad you enjoyed it, crimsoncorundum. NOTHINGSFORGOTTEN (http://www.youtube.com/user/NOTHINGSFORGOTTEN?feature=watch) has made beautiful vids for all the songs from the Legend CD, I believe. They're definitely worth watching.

Thanks for the tip. I'm looking forward to checking them out. :)

That's very sweet of you. Thanks, karen9. :-)

You may have seen it before, but I hope you enjoy it. :-)

Thanks for the video, and get well soon, Claire! xxx

I'm happy you enjoyed the vid and thank you for your good wishes, anitamaid. :-) I'm feeling a lot better, so I'll be heading back to work tomorrow.

[jackycomelately.livejournal.com]

Awwww.... so sad! Although it's a really beautiful video. I'm sorry that you got worse! I hope you were feeling much better today.

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you enjoyed the vid, though I wish I had posted it under better circumstances.

I'm back at work today and feeling much better. Thanks for asking. :-)

This is a really good vid, so well made. I enjoyed it, though sad.

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

I'm happy you enjoyed it, even though it was sad. I highly recommend checking out some of NOTHINGSFORGOTTEN (http://www.youtube.com/user/NOTHINGSFORGOTTEN?feature=watch)'s other Robin of Sherwood vids as they're also beautifully made.
