Our Take

Barbara Dickson, the folk queen herself, has blessed us mere mortals with a treasure trove of her early recordings in "B4 74 - The Folkclub Tapes." And let me tell you, it's a real treat for the ears.

From the moment the first strum of the guitar hits, you know you're in for a wild ride down memory lane. Dickson's hauntingly beautiful voice weaves effortlessly through each track, pulling you in and making you feel like you're sitting right there in the folk club with her.

The album kicks off with the infectious energy of "Can You Dance the Oyurghtige," a toe-tapping tune that will have you tapping your feet in no time. And just when you think things couldn't get any better, Dickson hits you with the emotional gut punch of "The Twa Corbies," leaving you feeling like you've been transported to another time and place.

But it's not all serious business with Dickson. Tracks like "Black is the Colour of my True Love's Hair" showcase her playful side, while still maintaining her signature emotional depth.

So grab your favourite beverage, cozy up by the fire, and let Barbara Dickson serenade you with her enchanting melodies. You won't regret it, trust me.
