Shadowfall
Over the years, English traditional songs have played an important part in the band’s
repertoire and this sixth album reflects this fact by the majority of the songs being drawn
from the tradition. Some of the songs have been given new tunes and others have had
choruses added – and that is the beauty of the tradition that, although they can be
given wildly different musical treatments in each case, the strength of the original songs remains,
which is why they have endured. And such great stories in which we can still find relevance today.
This is the band's sixth album, released on CD in 2012.
The track notes are by John.
