Subject: Great 70s folk LPs (that I've missed)
I stopped listening to folk around the time punk was getting interesting and Steeleye Span were getting boring, and started again some time in this millennium.

So... what have I missed?

Here are some of the albums I do know about (and rate highly):

Peter Bellamy, Fair England's Shore
Tony Capstick, Does a Turn
Martin Carthy, Landfall
Shirley Collins, Amaranth
Nic Jones, The Noah's Ark Trap
Tony Rose, Young Hunting
June Tabor, Airs and Graces
Mike and Lal Waterson, Bright Phoebus

Who else - and which other albums - ought to be on that list? I should say that I've pretty much got Peter Bellamy, Tony Capstick, Nic Jones and Tony Rose covered - either I've got everything they recorded or I know what I haven't got (and intend to get it). Apart from them, you can basically assume that if I haven't listed it I don't know it.
