Editorial Reviews

In 1972 Ashley Hutchings and Richard Thompson recorded an album titled Morris On, which has become 'The Folk Album of all Time'. Followed by the well received Son of Morris On. Now 30 years later The Grandson of Morris On, again it is a marvelous collection of truly traditional English folk music. 2002.

This review is from: Grandson of Morris on (Audio CD)

I'll be mercifully brief. If you like Morris dancing & rock music, & you stumbled across this CD, you'd be utterly delighted.

But as someone who's almost worn out the original "Morris On!", this effort came across as overproduced & underenthusiastic.

If you like this sort of crossover, you first ought to get "Morris On!", & Philip Pickett's "The Bones of All Men," & maybe The Albion Band's "Rise Up Like the Sun" -- the personnel overlap between all four CDs is significant, but those three sound properly caffeinated.
