In Between Every Line is a 1986 live double album by English folk/rock singer-songwriter Roy Harper.

History

The album was created over a period of eighteen months and contains an assortment of Harper's live favourites e.g. "One of those days in England", "Highway Blues" and "One man Rock and Roll band". Some of the recordings are from Harper's performances at the Cambridge Folk Festival. Jimmy Page appears on guitar on three tracks,[2] however, specific details as to who plays on all the tracks, or where and when the tracks were recorded were not provided in the liner notes as the original "...tape boxes were mixed! Or lost".[3]

The album also contains a live performance of "Short and Sweet", a song by David Gilmour and Roy Harper. The original version of this track were released on David Gilmour and, featuring both musicians, on Harper's The Unknown Soldier.

Initially released on vinyl and cassette, the album's length was reduced when converted to CD by omitting the last track, "Hangman".

The album was dedicated to Derek Jewell, British writer, broadcaster and music critic.
