But here "folk" and "folkies" are obviously code-words for a kind of insufferably quaint and nostalgic strain of music. But that changed in England with Fairport Convention's mutation from "the British Jefferson Airplane" (listen to their first album) to the inventors of the particularly British brand of folk-rock.

Yep, "Leige & Leaf" is always said to be the "first" folk-rock album. And damn good it is too, and now available on a remastered CD with extra tracks. Well worth anyone's money.

End of advert.
