Title: Exceptional English Folk
Review: This undeservedly obscure album deserves a review! Tickawinda were Jim Schofield, Alison Tulloch, Kath Richmond, and Dave Birchwood. They were the house band for the Rose & Crown folk club in the late 70's. Tickawinda went into the studio in 1979 to make this, their only album, with the help of Clive Gregson. They had obviously listened to Steeleye Span and Pentangle a bit, given their choice of material. The performances of these traditional tunes, and others written by more contemporary song writers, are outstanding. The female volcalists are both wonderful, and the playing on the album is superb. Fans of the afore mentioned bands may want to check this one out.
