Steeleye Span, The Green Man Collection,
2LP UK Park Records - PRKLP159
Double gatefold Vinyl edition
of Steeleye Span’s The Green Man Collection. The Green Man
Collection brings together tracks from their recent albums with new
versions of three Steeleye classics, including a reworking of
‘Hard Times’ featuring Status Quo’s
Francis Rossi, New York Girls (feat. Frank Skinner) and a cover of
Elvis Costello’s ‘Shipbuilding’. The
title track is of special interest to Steeleye fans, a song by Bob
Johnson – who was a member of the band throughout the early
years and responsible for many of their classic ballads from that era.
Previously lost for 40 years, the song addressed the issue of climate
change long before it became such a widespread topic.
Edizione in vinile a doppia copertina apribile di The Green Man
Collection degli Steeleye Span. The Green Man Collection riunisce brani
tratti dai loro album più recenti con nuove versioni di tre
classici degli Steeleye, tra cui una rivisitazione di "Hard Times" con
Francis Rossi degli Status Quo, "New York Girls" (con Frank Skinner) e
una cover di "Shipbuilding" di Elvis Costello. La title track è
di particolare interesse per i fan degli Steeleye, una canzone di Bob
Johnson, membro della band nei primi anni e autore di molte delle loro
ballate classiche di quell'epoca. Rimasta perduta per 40 anni, la
canzone affrontava il tema del cambiamento climatico ben prima che
diventasse un argomento così diffuso.
