Tony Barrand and John Roberts: A Present from the Gentlemen
A Pandora's Box of English Folk Songs
John Roberts and Tony Barrand have a near-inexhaustible repertoire of English folksongs, and they've put over an hour's worth of their favorites on this disc. Beauties like "Adieu Sweet Lovely Nancy," "Jackie Munro," and "The Painful Plough" will delight traditional music fans. They also do a musical version of Hamlet (in 4 minutes!), some music hall pieces, and a medley of World War I songs.
