MARTIN CARTHY

 with DAVE SWARBRICK

 If the English folk revival of the 1960s had a single "father" and guiding spirit, 

then Martin Carthy was it. Carthy's influence transcends his abilities, formidable though those are,

apart from being one of the most talented acoustic guitarists, mandolinists, and general 

multi-instrumentalists working the folk clubs in the 1960s, he was also a powerful singer 

with no pretensions or affectations, and was an even more prodigious arranger and editor, 

with an excellent ear for traditional compositions. By 1966, at the time he was cutting 

his first two albums, Carthy was already an influence on Bob Dylan and Paul Simon, 

and by the end of the 1960s was de facto mentor to virtually every serious aspiring 

folk musician in England. At least three major English folk-rock bands, Fairport Convention, 

Steeleye Span, and the Albion Band, were formed either directly or indirectly with his help and influence

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

This record stands in British music history and Carthy's career roughly where 

Another Side of Bob Dylan does in American music--the more florrid tracks here, 

recorded with violinist Dave Swarbrick, show the path to the bridge between Carthy's 

traditional singer/scholar background and the folk-rock played by bands such as 

Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span. "Lord Franklin" is a narrative tour-de-force 

(from which Bob Dylan got the melody for "Bob Dylan's Dream" on Freewheelin' ), 

"Ramblin' Sailor" is boisterous cautionary tale about the company the title character 

keeps ashore, and there's also an acoustic recording of "Sailor's Life," a song that 

Fairport Convention would transmute into an epic electric version, and "Lowlands of Holland," 

which Steeleye Span later recorded...(AllMusic)
