Our Take
Ah, dust on the nettles, a phrase that evokes images of overgrown gardens and neglected landscapes. And fittingly, this album compilation of various artists is a collection of forgotten gems and hidden treasures from the back catalogues of 70s and 80s British folk and psych rock. From the haunting acoustic melodies of Anne Briggs to the whimsical storytelling of Nick Drake, this album is a journey through the sonic landscapes of a bygone era. Each track is a snapshot of a different time and place, with its own unique quirks and charms. The standout track on the album is undoubtedly Fairport Convention's "Tam Lin", a haunting ballad that weaves together elements of traditional folk music with a contemporary sensibility. Sandy Denny's ethereal vocals float effortlessly over the intricate instrumentation, creating a mesmerizing listening experience. Overall, Dust on the Nettles is a must-have for any music lover looking to explore the rich tapestry of British folk and psych rock. It's a nostalgic trip down memory lane, with plenty of surprises along the way. So dust off your turntable, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let the music transport you to a time when folk music ruled the airwaves.
