Album review by Pete Fyfe

The Lark in the Morning

Steeleye Span - The Lark In The Morning (Castle Music CMDDD781)

It's very rare for me to be so brief in things to say about an album (surely not) but trust me, if you're into Steeleye and haven't got their first three albums BUY THIS NOW! 'Hark The Village Wait', 'Please To See The King' and 'Ten Man Map' are all condensed onto 2 cd's plus the bonus of 'General Taylor' and 'Rave On'. I can't stress enough how important these recordings were and still are so, if you either remember the first time you heard these recordings or are just getting into folk-rock this is an essential purchase.
