anne briggs: four songs

Anne Briggs sang three songs during the launch episode of Folk-Song Cellar, broadcast on Saturday August 13th, 1966. When Fledg'ling approached Anne with the tentative proposal to release these songs, she was quick to respond: "Three songs on an EP is awkward. If you needed another song, there might be something recorded from a Nottingham folk club around that time". Anne's oldest friends recorded some songs in their local folk club and carefully preserved the recordings for decades. Al Atkinson offers some rare photographs for the sleeve. Rare, simple, unadorned and intimate performances make their first appearance on record here.
