Tsk, Tsk..... :-) (Had the good fortune of seeing Shirley and Peter Bellamy as a duo here in Melbourne on that '80 tour. Sensational solo performances, and they did some duets.) |

It appears to be the article we were talking about on the other Shirley Collins thread, about The Big Interview. I'm responding here because it's where you last posted, but let me know if that's what you had in mind. |

14 Jun 23 - 06:37 AM (#4174517) Subject: RE: Shirley Collins 2023 CD Archangel Hill From: Dave the Gnome I must admit that my introduction to Shirley's work was on No Roses after I had already fell in love with Maddie Prior and Steeleye Span! The Albion Band and Shirley became, for me and unfairly in hindsight, runners up in my own mind. I filed Shirley away and her withdrawal from singing did nothing to rectify that. Until now! This album is a stunner and Shirley's voice has aged well. Firmly on my play list now :-D |
