Colin Randall Review: Folk CDs of the year? (44) Review: Folk CDs of the year? 22 Dec 08


Just one view of course. But having voted for Eliza Carthy in the two critics' polls in which I was invited to part, I found myself making Cara Dillon's Hill of Thieves joint best album of 2008.

I might have done so for the sublime version of Spencer the Rover alone, but it really is a special album, much more traditional than I'd come to expect from her, with excellent contributions from the Lakeman brothers, including her husband. And I think her singing has acquired a little welcome grit.

My runners-up include Bellowhead, Leon Rosselson, Maddy Prior and Chris Foster - the full list is at
Salut! Live

Anyone else want to chip in with their nominations?
