Having seen a review by an Oysterband fan I was not sure what to expect - "when did Oysterband become June Tabors backing band". The album is listed as June Tabor with Oysterband & what a lovely suprise, brilliantly produced album every track a favorite & I usually cannot stand June Tabor. |

19 Sep 11 - 05:15 AM (#3225441) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: GUEST,Azoic "Bonny Bunch Of Roses" is as much of a powerhouse of a "folk" song as I've ever heard. |

20 Sep 11 - 12:52 PM (#3226133) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: Reinhard *If* the songs have to be accompanied at all they are very nicely done. But I would have liked her to sing Fountains Flowing or The Leaves of Life unaccompanied. That would have been much more interesting. |

I got home, put it on this afternoon and typed out my feelings on every track, on my FB page, because that's how it affected me. 'Bonny Bunch of Roses' is superb, but then *every* track is pretty wonderful. It just *all* works SO well... June Tabor and John Jones talking about 'Ragged Kingdom' |

24 Sep 11 - 05:04 AM (#3228204) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: Lizzie Cornish 1 John and June have voices that blend together *so* well. The cover is a piece of art on its own, with beautiful photos by Judith Burrows. Just putting it on again now...and 'Bonny Bunches of Roses' is pounding its fantastic rhythm out.................. Heck, I bet even Ol' Bony himself would be moving his body to this one! :0) |

24 Sep 11 - 05:13 AM (#3228212) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: GUEST,Azoic Perhaps "Bonny...." could make it on the charts as a crossover hit if it were marketed as such?June Tabor, a superstar?But then,I've always wanted to hear her duet with Patti Smith on "People Have The Power". |

24 Sep 11 - 05:14 AM (#3228213) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: Lizzie Cornish 1 Could someone ask Grumpy Ed over on fRoots why he's not got a thread about 'Ragged Kingdom' on his board. I'd ask him myself, but............. ;0) Come ON, Ian..where ARE you with this brilliant CD??? The Oysters are one of your favourite bands too... Que? :0) |

27 Sep 11 - 04:30 AM (#3229753) Subject: RE: 'Ragged Kingdom' favorite song? From: theleveller It's a very fine album (have the Oysters ever made a bad one?) - difficult to choose a favourite but I think it has to be Love Will Tear Us Apart. |
