Hiya, …..... as in anything that's not with Steeleye Span? Mine's 'Fabled Hare'. Heard it when I was very little and nothing could convince me that I couldn't become a hare if I sang it, or that she couldn't – because she sang "I shall ….", I didn't realise she wasn't singing about herself. ...(Y)_ ...('-.-) .o(")(") I eventually made the connection that the woman singing that song was the same one on Dad's tape – that eventually went wrong from being overplayed. I'm still a bit mystical now. What's your favourite ?? |

Handweaver & Factory Maid, with two other songs interpolated, e.g.; with that wonderful final sequence of three Maddys singing "When I was a weaver" in harmony. ~Michael~ |

From: GUEST,Treacle Bolly Non-Steeleye: Her voice chimes like the purest bells on the track "Allelujah" on the "Going for Glory" album. Also love "The Sovereign Prince" on "Changing Winds". Steeleye: Combining with Gay Woods on songs on "Hark the Village Wait", but too many to choose from ! |
