Synopsis

Album Description
For over thirty years Nic Jones has been recognised as one of the finest artists to have emerged from the British folk revival of the mid twentieth century. He recorded a handful of important albums including his most highly regarded 'Penguin Eggs' (Topic 411), before a road accident ended his performing career in early 1982. This CD gathers together a remarkable series of live performances from the late 1970s. Nic remains one of the most influential and respected musicians, and his reputation and available recordings continue to attract an audience too young to have seen him perform.

CD Reviews

Blinding
G. T. A. Bath | New Orleans | 02/03/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This one is a total blinder. Its not as consistent as Penguin Eggs, but has cuts on it that are equal to anything on that album. Some are even better: the take on Clyde Water here reaches new levels of emotional impact, its devastating.



I'm digging out all these new releases now. if they're half as good as this one i'll be happy.



All sorts of older folkies are getting lots of pres and kudos these days but give me this guy anyday over Jansch, Bunyon etc (much as I love them), hes peerless.
