Fledg'ling records catalogue
It's not listed. Fire off an email to them maybe? What a great, great catalogue, anyway. Plus, I didn't realise "Power of the True Love Knot" had come out on CD. (x-post, gah)
[OK, I edited the URL so it's the correct link, not an "owned" jpg. GAH. Apologies]

Has recently toured Europe with Six Organs Of Admittance. Slightly too dark to be pure hippy, slightly too thunderous to be pure folk, this is truly a rediscovery to look into...

yeah, i take it back anyway. i was trying to think of something that i would have considered too old-fogeyish to listen to in the 80's, but i liked a lot of that canterbury stuff even then. and other pastoral folkish prog like curved air and such.

Yeah, the new Vashti Bunyan album has only two or three memorable cuts. As stated before; it's pretty, but also pretty unsubstantial (Maybe I'll get an e-mail from her, too!).Still, I ADORE "Just Another Diamond Day" and her work with AC with all my heart.

Seconding the Mellow Candle respect. Swaddling Songs is a gem.
Anyone here familiar with Fionn McCool (sp?) I read about them in a newsletter over the past year, and I can't remember where. Maybe Other Music? They were a 70s band who were compared to Mellow Candle.
I love this stuff!!!

The Oysterband are also not bad, Freedom and Rain with June Tabor is quite likable.

Beyond the Carthy/Swarbrick and Nic Jones level of recognition, there are people like Pete Coe and Chris Foster (who are both still playing) that have made some excellent albums over the years. Also, I am surprised that Swan Arcade are not mentioned more often - I strongly urge anyone to check them out. I think you can get a couple of compilations of their albums that are now unavailable.

It looks like he's another cult/off the critical map type UK artist who got fucked over by his record company (see also: bill nelson) w/no hope of recompense, & who is not "big" enough to get enough publicity to rectify this?
I'll stick an order in for his new self-produced CD, I think.

I started to say Folk Routes/New Routes is stunning. I love the way DG adds a bluesy twang to the likes of Nottamun Town. Wonderful.
Espers I find pretty but they don't really have the songs. Maybe I need to give them more time, but live, they only got going in the last song.Lucky Luke are great and as lovely as the record is they sound quite different live. More stripped down, with a more rockin' rhythm section. It really suits them, and Lucy's voice is getting stronger all the time.
