Title: Charm in the Simplicity
Review: This CD is reproduced from the LP of one of the very first folk rock groups that drew directly from English-Irish-Scot lineage. On it is a rousing rendition of the ill-fated & adulterous affair of the farmhand Matty Groves with the Lady of the House; an atmospheric version of the vampire Reynardine leading his victim over the misty mountain; and the intiguing Tam Lin, with a text replete with alchemical-like references. The rock backup music is a bit primitive judging by today's standards, but there's charm in the simplicity. Highly recommended for the folk/ethnic music connoisseur. Oh yes--the bonus track Sir Patrick Spens is a wonderful folk ballad. Sandy Denny's purist vocals provides the perfect delivery for this material.
