Today's Irish/Scottish/English folk playlist

Ashley Hutchings - Rattlebone and Ploughjack, 1976


I don't know if you noticed, Mystic, but that was the thread starter, the second LP mentioned in the first post.

It is a marvelous work of reconstuction, and I really like the readings. Hutchings had a knack for digging out appropriate texts to put around the music.

Finally time to post!

Vinyl1, like your taste in music. Mine too for a while.

Today: Fairport "Liege & Lief" plus "expletive delighted!"

Runrig, "In Search Of Angels"

and finally, the song, "Mother's Lament" from Cream Disraeli Gears.
 
Reaching into the rack at random, I pulled out The Watersons, For Pence and Spicy Ale.

I don't have any recollection of purchasing this, but it's a very clean UK Topic with the blue/ellipse label. The music might be a little purist for some, but it definitely grows on one.
 
The New High Level Ranters, Topic 12TS425. I just had to hear 'The Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigade', it was running through my head. Too bad the lyrics aren't available online, it's quite an amusing song.
 
The list geats better and better every post. May it stay alive for ever.

The Guvnores Big Birthbay Bash. - Live In Concert

As the originator of this thread, I thank you.

You will note that the very first post started out with two Ashley Hutchings LPs - a very good way to start.

I admit, I am amazed at the amount of interest and the number of users here who play these LPs and CDs.
 
I do like some of the later John Renbourn. Ship of Fools is quite good, but my absolute favorite is The Enchanted Garden. Well worth getting, if anyone does not have it.

I do not have either of those and will have to add them to my wish list. I really like what I've heard by Renbourn.
