Isn't it about time that 'The Long Harvest' was re-issued? I received several volumes for my 21st birthday and bought the rest myself - they were a revelation! The recordings of Ewan singing 'Sir Patrick Spens', 'Clerk Colven' or 'The Swan Swims sae Bonny' or Peggy singing 'the House Carpenter' or 'Pretty Polly' were both fascinating and inspiring - these are now an indissoluble part of my mental furniture - I can't imagine my life without them. People still say unkind things about Ewan but I can honestly say that he had a greater effect on me than any other artist has done before or since.
