ITEM FOR SALE
Shirley Collins was an immensely important figure in Britain’s early 60s folk revival, and the golden age of British folk-rock in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. She is one of British folk’s most golden-throated vocalists, and one of its most eclectic; handling traditional fare, Renaissance music, and folk rock. Following 2 successful albums of medieval folk music in the late sixties, Shirley turned up in bona fide folk-rock groups after she had married Ashley Hutchings, a key early member of both Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span. And it was with Hutchings that she sang in a couple of the mid-’70s most traditionally oriented British folk-rock outfits, most notably the Albion Country Band. Without a doubt 'No Roses' is Shirley Collins at her very best, featuring a truly impressive backing band in The Albion Country Band. It mixes her usual blend of folk-rock and sultry vocals and will be a welcome addition to the collections for folksters everywhere!

SLEEVE/RECORD GRADING
I take great pride in accurately grading records, my feedback is testament to this accuracy, furthermore to give potential buyers a more detailed description of records, I grade both sides of sleeve and both sides of record. This gives a more accurate assessment of the overall condition of item. Sleeve is always graded first, any inserts are graded seperately. 45rpm singles are graded as a & b sides, sleeves are not graded (unless otherwise stated) but are deemed to be in a reasonable condition as seen from photograph. All photos are of the actual item you are purchasing.
