Our Take

Barbara Dickson's latest offering, "B4 Seventy-Four - The Folkclub Tapes," is a delightful trip down memory lane, showcasing the singer's enchanting folk stylings from before she hit the ripe old age of seventy-four.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you can't help but feel transported to a quaint English village pub, complete with wooden beams and the smell of ale lingering in the air. Dickson's voice is as captivating as ever, effortlessly weaving tales of love, loss, and everything in between.

The Folkclub Tapes capture the essence of Dickson's early performances, raw and unfiltered, with each song feeling like a cosy fireside chat with an old friend. Tracks like "The Man's a Fool" and "Bruce's Lament" showcase Dickson's storytelling prowess, drawing you in with every word.

Despite the album's title hinting at Dickson's age, there's a timeless quality to her music that transcends generations. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to her music, "B4 Seventy-Four" is guaranteed to leave you tapping your toes and humming along.

In a world of autotune and over-produced pop hits, Barbara Dickson's authenticity is a breath of fresh air. So grab a pint, find a comfy spot by the fire, and let the Folkclub Tapes take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to Barbara Dickson for keeping the folk tradition alive and kicking!
