Subject: RE: Review: Steeleye Span
Hear hear Herga. Steelye showed me another horizon. Nothing lost in using power instruments. They individually performed electric and accoustic. Listen to "Individually Collectively Steely Span" if you can find a copy. Where each member played an individual track on one side and together on the other. (Mad Hatter label now out of print).

I think I have just about everything they have produced and not all of it is perfect but when was the last time a traditional song with any credence hit the UK Charts as No 1. Steelye Span have two and both were good ambassadors for "folk" music generally.
