All Around My Hat
Steeleye Span
℗ 1975 Chrysalis Records CHR 1091
Always mentioned as one of their better records, I think it stands the test of time and sounds just as good today as in '75 when it was released. The harmonies, melodies and general tone of the session is the Span relaxed and comfortable. And you just can't argue with the cover art. This one is a British pressing, but I don't think there are any differences between this and the stateside product. Maddy Prior: vocals; Tim Hart: dulcimer, guitar, vocals; Bob Johnson: guitar, vocals; Rick Kemp: bass, vocals; Peter Knight: violin, keyboards, vocals; Nigel Pegrum: flute, drums. |
