Fotheringay - for some reason I always thought the Fotheringay album was somehow flawed but it's a perfect little gem, albeit the CD has the 'bonus' of an English folk band attempting to RnR badly on Memphis Tennessee.


Love this album. It's her most June Tabor-esque record I think in that it is still a Folk Rock record but with the accent on the piano and primarly acoustic guitars rather than the raw edged electrics and fiddle of the Fairports. On the other side it is also not an MOR album like some of the solo records. Add "Late November" from the El Pea sampler to "Fotheringay" and lose "Ned Kelly" and you've nigh on the perfect Rock-Folk album. I love how muscular and driving the piano is.

Talking of "Late November", two years on and I still haven't got used to there being a second album although I knew some of the recordings from other places. Given the line up and the people playing on it I think of it more as "Rising For The Moon Part Minus One".
