This features a truly impressive folk-rock backing band, later to become The Albion Band with the legendary Shirley Collins. According to me, this would be certainly the album top in the list of any Brit folk rock collection. BBC radio had listed it amongst the top 10 Folk music albums of all time. I won't say much about this except that its a must have.
