CD ReviewsAn incredible return to classic Steeleye Span. Ed Dinty | Las Vegas, NV | 01/13/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "A great surprise, an excellent release. Most Steeleye Span fans will find something of value in each of their albums, and I'm no exception. While I've enjoyed their recent offerings, some albums were a bit uneven. So "They Called Her Baylon" was a really nice surprise. The band seems to have a new life, returning to the style that first attracted me. (This album could stand next to "Below the Salt" or "Parcel Of Rogues", it has that same feel.) Check this one out. You won't be dissapointed." Steeleye of the 70s is back! Scott Nollen | various | 12/14/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "I don't know how any knowledgeable Steeleye Span fan could not LOVE this album. I have been listening to everything the band has released since 1975, and the addition of Ken Nicol (in the Bob Johnson tradition) + the return of both Maddy Prior and her husband Rick Kemp has returned Span to its glory-days sound of 1974-76, when such albums as COMMONER'S CROWN and ALL AROUND MY HAT were getting ground down to a stub on my turntable after repeated listenings! All their albums over the past 30 years have featured great moments, but the pseudo-Steeleye of the past few years was not really the band, but with its moments, as well. This new record features great songs, superb vocals, and solid, tight, powerful playing by all concerned. This is one of the best folk-rock albums in a long time, and I am so pleased that the "olde English" lads and lasses are at it again!" Don't overlook this one Michael L. Knapp | Placerville, CA United States | 10/18/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "This is a really good album. Just a very small notch below a "5". Some people have a tendancy to overlook the last several albums because they aren't All Around My Hat or Please To See The King or any one of their older albums. Get over it and really give this one a listen. The band continues to evolve and are still capable of turning a great batch of tunes and this one gets better & better with repeated listenings. Gay Wood did a great job on the albums recorded with her, but it's nice to have Maddy Prior back into the band most associated with her. It would have been nice to have Gay & Maddy singing together again, but hey, ya can't have everything."
