Life

In 1967, just a few months after the band was formed, Dyble joined Fairport Convention . However, she only stayed for the debut album . Even before its release in mid-1968, she was fired from the band and replaced by Sandy Denny .

Then she applied together with Ian McDonald in the Melody Maker for a place in a new band. After Peter Giles answered them, they joined Giles, Giles & Fripp , which later became King Crimson . The band recorded several demo tapes during this time, which were finally released in 2001 as The Brondesbury Tapes ; an early version of I Talk to the Wind with Judy Dyble also appeared in 1976 on the compilation The Young Person's Guide to King Crimson .

After a short time, Judy Dyble separated from Giles, Giles & Fripp and founded the folk-rock duo Trader Horne with ex- Them keyboarder Jackie McAuley . Dyble co-wrote several songs on Trader Horne's only album, Morning Way , which was released in 1970. She not only sings there, she also plays the piano and autoharp .

In May 1971, she teamed up with the remnants of Delivery - Lol Coxhill , Phil Miller and his brother Steve Miller - to form DC & the MB’s (Dyble-Coxhill and the Miller Brothers); However, the band only played a few concerts in Holland and then finally broke up.

After that, Dyble withdrew from the music scene for a long time, except for two guest appearances at the Cropredy Festival in 1981 and 1982. In 1997 and 2002, she performed with Fairport Convention at the same festival.
