Our Take

Ah, Nic Jones, the folk legend that left us all gagging for more after his tragic car accident in 1982. But fear not, for his masterpiece "Penguin Eggs" has been resurrected for our listening pleasure. With his signature fingerpicking style and haunting vocals, Jones weaves a mesmerizing tapestry of traditional folk tunes that will leave you feeling like you've been transported to the misty moors of England. From the lively jig of "Canadee-i-o" to the heartbreaking ballad of "Fare Thee Well," each track on this album is a gem in its own right. Jones' storytelling prowess shines through, painting vivid pictures of lost love, heartbreak, and the harsh realities of rural life. But what truly sets "Penguin Eggs" apart is Jones' impeccable musicianship. His guitar work is nothing short of jaw-dropping, with complex fingerpicking patterns that will leave any aspiring folk musician green with envy. So sit back, pour yourself a cuppa, and let Nic Jones serenade you with his timeless tunes. "Penguin Eggs" is a must-listen for any folk music enthusiast, and a reminder of the irreplaceable talent that we lost too soon. Nic Jones may be gone, but his music lives on in this exceptional album. Cheers, Nic.
