4.0 out of 5 stars Cornell Univeristy Rocks!, August 8, 2003
By 
Joseph Sanger (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spencer the Rover is Alive and Well (Audio CD)
This really brings me back! These fellas were teaching assistants at Cornell University in the early 1970's ... when I was a nerdy engineering student. Now I'm a nerdy physician. I enjoyed the music then and I find it just as enjoyable now. I'm no expert on British folk music, but this is a nice album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally on CD, November 29, 2002
By 
CyranoRox (a garret over a moonlit street) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spencer the Rover is Alive and Well (Audio CD)
One of the best Brit Folk albums of all time, finally out on CD. I grew up listening to these guys at east coast folk festivals and clubs, and they did a lot of good stuff in the 70's but this first one is still the best, with all of your favourite Tony and John songs.

5.0 out of 5 stars great second- or third-or more-generation English Folk, November 28, 2010

This review is from: Spencer the Rover is Alive and Well (Audio CD)
Four-star reviewers are pantywaists. This is a delightful album from two delightful musicians. The songs have been part of me for four decades, and I wish they toured the south. Clear harmonies, a great group of songs, and the enthusiasm is definitely contagious. I miss 'em.
