ANNE BRIGGS-NOTTINGHAMSHIRE TALES-'73 BRITISH FOLK-LP

ANNE BRIGGS-

NOTTINGHAMSHIRE TALES

(NEW LP) (VINYL LOVERS) REISSUE

Label: VINYL LOVERS

This is her third and last solo album, recorded in 1973 and finally released in the '90s as "Sing A Song For You".

Anne was pregnant for her second child at the time of these recordings and already living off the coast of Scotland in the Hebrides islands, as far from the London music scene as possible! Not surprisingly, given Briggs' talent, the album has since become known as "lost classic".

Accompanied by "Ragged Robin" a folk rock band assembled by Steve Ashley (with Richard Byers on mandolin and lead guitar, Brian Diprose on bass, and John Thompson on drums), these brilliant versions of British folk standards and original material, are delivered with the kind of rare sincerity and natural vocal ability that slices through time, straight to the soul.
