Subject: RE: waht you favourite june tabor song/
I have really enjoyed her collaborations with Maddy Prior.
And I think "A Proper Sort of Gardener" one of her best. (Also a Maggie Holland song.) Though I have a number of favorites, as a group I like her early unaccompanied songs the best.
I don't much care for some of the more jazzy stuff she does, but I will occasionally buy a CD for the several really fine songs that she does well, and that no one else I have access to has recorded.
Speaking of which, is anyone familiar with Maggie Holland's recordings, and could give a "review"? I tried some time back to get one but the imports were so expensive I gave it up. Tried to look for them when in England (Kent) last summer and had no luck.
(Looks like we may be coming back to the UK in Sept of 2004. Where is there a good record shop near Tenterden, or near Glastonbury/Wells? We will probably be spending most of our time in those two areas. We try to avoid the big city!)
