Our Take

Bob Fox's latest album, "A Garland For Joey," is a delightful romp through traditional English folk music, with a modern twist that sets it apart from your average folk album. Fox's charming vocals and expert guitar skills are on full display here, transporting listeners to a cozy pub in the heart of the English countryside.

From the opening track, "The Bonny Lad," Fox's storytelling abilities shine through, painting vivid pictures of love, loss, and longing. The album's standout track, "The Grey Cock," is a haunting ballad that will send shivers down your spine. Fox's emotive delivery and intricate fingerpicking make this song a true highlight.

But it's not all melancholy tunes on "A Garland For Joey." Tracks like "The Canny Shepherd Laddie" and "The Recruited Collier" inject a dose of energy and excitement into the mix, showcasing Fox's versatility as a musician. And the album's closer, "The Bonnie Lass O' Fyvie," is a foot-stomping, knee-slapping good time that will leave you wanting more.

Overall, "A Garland For Joey" is a must-listen for any fans of English folk music. Bob Fox's expertly crafted songs and heartfelt delivery make this album a true standout in the genre. So grab a pint, pull up a chair, and let Bob Fox's music transport you to a world of love, loss, and longing. Cheers!
