Free Music Review: A unique voice in the Brit-folk scene
Hit: 5 Stars
One of those "lost legendary albums" we keep hearing about, but in this case a genuine folk revival gem that is certainly worth checking out. Ashley was a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who was in the general orbit of the fabled Fairport Convention, and plenty of famous folks play with him on this lovely little album, including Ashley Hutchings, Dave Mattacks, Simon Nicol, Dave Swarbrick, Danny Thompson and others. It's familiar-sounding material, straight out of the shaggy-haired, dancing-with-elves scene, yet Ashley's work definitely has an individual stamp to it, a beguiling mix of traditionalism and the searching, spacy mysticism that marked the work of contempraries like Nick Drake and Richard Thompson. Not as cohesive (or perhaps, dare I say it?) as commercial an album as all the oft-cited classic LPs of the Brit-folk canon, but that may be what makes this dsic worth tracking down -- Ashley does have a different take on things, a distinctive voice in a genre that quite often fell back on familiar stylistic conventions...
