Description
"This collection of songs, my interpretations of them and the way I deliver them are all rooted in the rich and fertile soil of the English folk tradition. Nevertheless, I freely acknowledge the many other influences that have shaped, and continue to shape, my singing.
When researching these songs I have found that they have no respect for borders. Here you will find a few from Scotland, Ireland and Newfoundland, though most would comfortably withstand being called English. Although I generally sing alone and unaccompanied, this CD is not a solo venture.
I include some accompanied tracks to add tonal variety and my good friends Mary Humphreys and Anahata kindly agreed to join me in the studio for a couple of days and I am deeply grateful for their sensitive musicianship." - Jack Crawford
