CD Reviews

A great beginning...

Mark C. | Seattle, WA United States | 11/30/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"this is SS v.1 c. 1970; two lovely female lead singers Maddy Prior and Gay Woods soar, swoon harmonize and counter harmonize

Then Gay and husband Terry departed-sad day for folk music

The original RCA UK LP had the best sound- the Mooncrest/Shanachie are total cr*p, the 2006 Sanctuary restoration was good but still lacking reverb

and now we have the 2009 UMG version-probably remastered again; Throw all other editions previous to 2006 in the garbage disposal...."
