It sounds very much like an old English folk song.

I could imagine Sandy Denny-era Fairport doing this.

Does this title translate as "d'ya get me!?" as the youngsters might say these days? hmm

That was a quality album filled with fabulous singing, and deffo deserving of a second listen.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

That sounds like an Anglicisation of something Slavic?

Polish?

Czech?

I liked that, although it did flatter to deceive on first listen.

However, as Wendi-Pops states above, it may well deserve further perusalings and listenings, which is a testament as to how much more interesting and soulful and stirring I expected it to be.

Four black-as-pitch Wendi-approved b*mholes from me.
