The Yetties

"Dorset is Beautiful" 1972

The excellent Argo production mixes with the group's immersion in the songs of their native Dorset to produce an album that is, indeed, beautiful, as well as informative. Those who only know tunes such as "Brigg Fair" from their interpretations by Frederick Delius, among others, may find the renditions here enlightening, and one can tell they were also having fun, especially with the finish on the opening medley. And it may be near-essential for anyone who loves Thomas Hardy's books, including Tess of the D'ubervilles and Far From the Madding Crowd.
