MORE INFO:
'Sweet England' along with it's sister album 'False True Lovers', was recorded in the spring of 1958 when I was twenty-two years old. I had been living for the previous two years in London with Alan Lomax, the American folklorist, working for him as editorial assistant on his book The Folk Songs of North America and on his field recordings from America, Great Britain, Italy and Spain. The tracks that make up these two albums were recorded by Peter Kennedy and Alan in two days at Peter's home 'studio' in Belsize Park. English traditional music, at it's best, expresses and provides everything in song that I need and feel, both musically and emotionally. Sweet England represents the first shaky steps of a journey that I have been on all my life, and that, happily, I still am." (Shirley Collins)Limited to 800 LPs, remastered and with restored original artwork, LP with postcard inserts. Recorded 67 years ago, reissued in Shirley's 90th year in this universe.Shirley Collins - voice John Hasted - banjo Ralph Rinzler - guitar Guy Carawan - guitar
