「The first of the many collaborations between Ewan MacColl (Blow Boys Blow) and Peggy Seeger. Haunting harmonies, stellar banjo picking, and a wonderful selection of songs combine to make this one of the most impressive Tradition releases to date. Recorded in 1959.」
「The Tradition reissue of this album includes the original liner notes written by Ewan MacColl, along with an 1997 update by Peggy Seeger. The master tapes were digitally restored and remastered for this release.」
