I seem to remember seeing Steeleye Span perform at Viewfirth in Thurso, in 1972. Does anybody else remember that? Their performance wasn't in the Viewfirth folk club in "The barn", but in the dance hall.

A really wonderful cover version than IMO is MILES better than Joni Mitchell's 'original'. I suspect however that it is an old folk song and she was simply the first to record it.
Someone on YouTube put together a video for this track and I quite like the video but it's not official, just a personal response to the music by a you-tube-r

Would have only been a wee nipper in 72'. Would have liked to have seen early Steeleye Span though. AFAIK they are still touring and still very good. Love Maddy's voice.
I'm glad to hear they are still touring, and still very good, emb123. :) Maddy has a very distinctive voice, and I always loved the band's vocal harmonies, as well as their catchy tunes.
Today I'm listening to "A New Journey" by the Irish band "Celtic Woman". The CD was just released this past week, and it's lovely! I was just as impressed with their eponymous debut album last year. This time around, the five Irish ladies are joined by young New Zealand soprano Hayley Westenra, who already has several albums to her credit. Her angelic voice fits right in with the equally angelic vocals of the other members.
Each of the sixteen tracks is wonderful, but I especially enjoy "Caledonia", written by Scotsman Dougie MacLean, a musician who hails from Perthshire. :cool:

I just finished listening/watching the new Nine Inch Nails video for Survivalism, which is most interesting. Good tune, akin to Reznors older stuff while retaining the accessible melody of With Teeth's offerings.
Been listening to alot of Semisonics first LP The Great Divide as well, excellent album.
