Customer Reviews

English Folk at it's traditional best.4
This CD was an enjoyable trip into traditional English Folk with an occasional sprinkling of newer stuff in true style. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys the traditional style or someone new to it who wants to hear some good quality examples of the genre.
Traditional it might be, but it still speaks through it's storylines to today's listeners, oh and it can get you on your feet for a jig round the house!
