Jancis Harvey "A Portrait of Jancis Harvey" (UK Folk 1976)

This time it is the 1976 album from one of the best, most obscure singer/songwriters in the 1970s UK folk circuit, released for the first time on CD! Recorded in Wales, a landscape which has inflected the album with a closeness and warmth absent from the work of many more prominent folk artists of the time, this is an album of innocence, intimacy, love of nature all with a touch of insular melancholy. Includes a small booklet with the lyrics. File next to Nick Drake, Sandy Denny & Richard & Linda Thompson... (Freak Emporium)

01. You And Me
02. My Father's Business
03. Swallow, Swallow
04. Man Of Galilee
05. Killing Me Softly (With His Song)
06. Catch Another Butterfly
07. I'm Gonna Be A Country Girl Again
08. City Of New Orleans
09. I Am The Morning Sun
10. Little Star
11. Take Two
12. No Regrets
13. Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out
