ain't it?
Lovely record all round. Guess it just about connects the 2 main schools of thought about folk at the time. The one which thought folk was a tool to play around with and come up with something pretty new from possible combinations which Graham epitomises and the traditional purist Ewan McColl school, though I'm not sure whether or not Shirley Collins 100% fits that.

Listening to that you just wonder how widely people contemporary to it's horizons widened through it. Or was it just an exotic item to many in which case that possibly wouldn't come into play.

I mean i always fancied existing in the sixties, thinking about mod-ism or psychedelia but the reality was probably a lot more drab than the nostalgia for it.
