[ Talking Elephant Records / CD ]

Release Date: Friday 8 July 2016

This item is only available to us via Special Order. We should be able to get it to you in 3 - 6 weeks from when you order it.

Digitally remastered edition. The debut of Steeleye Span (Mark II), with Peter Knight on fiddle and Martin Carthy on guitar, Ashley Hutchings on bass and vocals by Maddy Prior, is more solid in almost every area from repertory to production. The group still had its feet in both modern and traditional sounds simultaneously, so Please To See The King mixes very beautiful, distinctly archaic sounding songs such as "Boys of Bedlam" with amplified, electric numbers.
