Title: Mellow, compelling folk album
Product review: A very low-key, singer-songwritery album, with a strong stylistic similarity to Bert Jansch's solo work. Ashley is an old-time compatriot of the Fairport Convention crew, and as on his older albums, there is a sense of genuine distinctiveness, a feeling that this is indeed a unique, individual voice, an unassuming artistic presence that seems shorn of the professionalism or showmanship of practically any other folk singer you can think of. Features contributions by Brit-folk stalwarts such as Danny Thompson, Simon Nicol, and Robin Williamson -- t may be a little too mellow for some listeners, but it certainly has a genuine allure. Interesting album, definitely worth checking out.
