The cover of Joni Mitchell's 'Eastern Rain' and Richard Thompson's 'Book Song' are both fantastic. The whole album was done with a confidence and swagger that was infectious, but tied in is this pathos that runs right the way through. Essential listening.Salopianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03314997117064411480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35608056.post-37514081887125421092009-03-18T08:54:00.000+00:002009-03-18T08:54:00.000+00:00This album (What We Did On Our Holidays) isn't nam...This album (<EM>What We Did On Our Holidays</EM>) isn't name-dropped as often as <EM>Unhalfbricking</EM>, but I think it's terrific.

I cannot keep stuff on there, I have to keep reloading it depending on my listening. Last week - until Saturday morning funnily enough - all that was on it was the Fairports. So this song, Who Knows Where The Time Goes, Tam Lin and Matty Groves were getting some serious rotation. I was going to post something by them myself this week. Won't bother now...sulk....lolSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05163017415448622471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35608056.post-84406736562827174372009-03-17T23:14:00.000+00:002009-03-17T23:14:00.000+00:00Magic in those walls.
