Subject: RE: Great 70s folk LPs (that I've missed)
Suibhne - OK, so that's 21. Anyone want to make it 22?

Al - I personally am not very interested in Irish songs and not very interested at all in American songs. This may - ironically - cut me off from anything that will ever appeal to anyone who drinks in the public bar and confine me to a university-graduate pewter-tankard ghetto, and if so I'm sorry about that. But I like what I like, and what I like is mainly old English and Scottish songs. So that's what I've mainly been asking about & responding to.

PFR: So it was when after spending ages tracking down rare CD releases:

Bob & Carole Pegg - "He Came from the Mountain" (1971)

Bob & Carole Pegg with Sydney Carter - "And Now It Is So Early: The Songs of Sydney Carter" (1973)

I don't think I ever got round to listening before the mrs tidied them away in a box somewhere..??


Can't find out anything about HCFTM - its availability doesn't look too great either. But I've got And now it is so early, & very fine it is too - I've even covered one of the songs myself (the original is better though).
