ANNE BRIGGS Anne Briggs (Extremely rare 1971 UK 10-track MONO vinyl LP by one of the leading lights of the sixties acoustic / folk boom, along with Davey Graham, Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Wizz Jones, Shelagh McDonald, Roy Harper, Ralph McTell and others. This was actually her second album, recorded for Bill Leader's Topic label a mere seven years after her first, because [as described in the sleeve notes] "Getting Anne Briggs into a recording studio is like enticing a wild bird into a cage". Hugely influential, and the provider of Blackwater Side to Bert Jansch as well as several songs and tunes for her contemporaries that she acquired on her almost constant travel across England and Ireland 12T207)

TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
A highly influential figure in the English folk music revival, being a source of songs and musical inspiration for others such as A.L. Lloyd, Bert Jansch, Jimmy Page, The Watersons, June Tabor, Sandy Denny, Richard Thompson and Maddy Prior. This is one of the precious few albums she left to history as she never really bothered about the traditional views of 'success' and 'fame', preferring instead to play a constant series of small clubs throughout her career. By all accounts, a determined woman who knew what she wanted from life and 'pop star' was not a part of it.

To those in the know, she has continued to influence to this very day and this is one of the many reasons that her all too few studio recordings are treated like the rare jewels they are.

This copy is very nice indeed.

Condition:

Apart from one 'ding' a the top of the opening leading to a very small tear, the sleeve shows just a little light shelfwear, with very laminate creasing and the unlaminated reverse showing few signs of its nearly fifty years on this Earth.

The vinyl retains a wonderful deep sheen and is a testament to Great British pressing technology of the early Seventies. There are just a few marks around the centre spindle hole to show for its time in the wild and the vinyl remains free of all but the very lightest paper scuff.

A very nice one owner copy, that has obviously been well looked after and only its time in storage has led to the few defects it shows.
