'To rouse the spirit of the earth and move the rolling sky'.
Try: Come All Ye. The Deserter. Reynardine. Matty Groves. Tam Lin...... fantastic performances.
A beautiful later piece by Denny and this and this. Same incredible voice.
The rhythms of Tam Lin move me 40 years back through time - acrid, smoke-filled rooms, cheap, red wine and earnest discussions about the Vietnam War and conscription. But enjoying FC now in real time with a 1988 Balgownie Estate - Cabernet Savignon - made by the legendary vigneron Stuart Anderson. Great old wine with great music!

Congratulations Harry they were a good band pretty good live as well.
You should give Steeleye Span a listen if you haven't already
Maddy Prior instead of Sandy Dennys. Intrigued, I'll listen.
Harry, I can hardly believe we have this in common. I've only recently acquired the remastered double CD with a host of alternate takes and live versions - my fourth version of this epic recording. Next, you are going to say you are also a Richard Thompson fan. 'I want to see the bright lights tonight' with then wife Linda is every bit as brilliant as L and L, and there's a vast back catalogue to discover if you haven't already.
By the way, the link in the first line of your post isn't working.
Sandy Denny's singing works very nicely in a song on Led Zeppelin IV (great album to be a part of too)
