FIRST HEARING:
It's great how the great albums keep reappearing, This one has been 'lost' for a good while now but with the label reestablished in Nashville (all you cowboys yell 'Yeeeha!") it looks good for the future.
Not that this is country music unless, of course, you subscribe to the well worn argument that country music is just our folk songs with a different accent, in which case this would be 'new country' - but it's not. It's all Andy Irvine.
