Shirley Collins And The Albion Country Band – Banks Of The Bann One of the most beautiful songs from a stunning album. Here with Shirley, alongside the cornerstone of it all, her partner Ashley Hutchings leading the Albion Country Band, are Nicol, Richard Thompson on the twelve-string, his friend and loyal companion John Kirkpatrick on accordion, and of course, sister Dolly on piano, providing a splendid accompaniment in Madame Collins' album where, even with her, British musical tradition embraces the electric/electro-acoustic arrangement.

Cover Shirley Collins & The Albion Country Band - No Roses

The mother of the British folk revival here accompanied by her consort Ashley Hutchings, who gathers a large band of friends who gradually drop by the sessions, and together they sing and play 9 beautiful songs from Albion's folk tradition. Thus was born "No Roses," a wonderful album where Collins' traditional style opens up to a sound that leaves room for a backdrop of electricity. Electric bass, drums, and the discreet but ever-present accompaniment of electric guitars (including Richard Thompson's, who plays a humble yet useful supporting role) dominate the arrangements just as much as the numerous traditional instruments typical of this music (fiddle, concertina, hurdy-gurdy, and others). Many names are involved, including sister Dolly and Ian Whiteman on piano, Lol Coxhill on saxophone (in an unprecedented context for him), and many more. A splendid album. more
