SORM Playlist #14-46: Classic UK Folk Rock
(airing the week starting 11-12-14)
Like many of you I discovered English Traditional Music through the aid of Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span. There’s much more to English Folk and Folk Rock than those two bands. In this, the first part of a two part feature we will hear some of the more mainstream bands and players including Pentangle, Sandy Denny and some early classic folk music from A.L. Lloyd, The High Level Ranters and Dave Swarbrick
