• Tracklist

• Anne Briggs’ second album appeared in 1971, but in sharp contrast to her debut, where she’d sung traditional music with scarcely any accompaniment, this was virtually all contemporary material, most of it self-penned, with Briggs playing guitar and bouzouki. Included was the title track, which had already been covered by former boyfriend Bert Jansch, and showed Briggs to be a writer of some power (although, to be fair, Jansch’s slower, more reflective version remains the better), and it’s also the standout among Briggs’ material, followed by Wishing Well, where Jansch gets the co-writing credit.
