Biography

Maddy Prior has established herself, by dint of both talent and time, as one of the leading female singers in British folk (and folk-rock). Born in St. Albans, outside London, she developed an interest in traditional English music as a teenager and through friends, found her way to the treasure trove of material at Cecil Sharpe House and also to Ewan MacColl, the de facto leader of the folk… Read more in Amazon's Maddy Prior Store

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Two CD set from one of British Folk/Rock's most talented female vocalists Maddy Prior (Steeleye Span) and her band of roving musicians. Like their previous seasonal excursions, this one sees Maddy and the Carnival Band put their unique stamp on a range of familiar (and not-so-familar) festive material, while also exploring some new and exotic directions. The Carnival Band themselves, and leader Andy Watts in particular, are accomplished musicians with a lust to restore energy into much of the stiff, dry, medieval and renaissance material they tackle. They mix ancient, modern and ethnic instrumentation with a refreshingly cavalier attitude and plenty of humour, a quality they share with Maddy Prior.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love The Music But Not the CD Company, November 24, 2006
By Frank Wood (Evanston, Il USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have bought every cd by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band that I have been able to find except this ser. I love everyone I have. But of the 22 titles on these cd's, 10 appear on the same artists' "Carols at Christmas", "Carols & Capers" and/or "Gold Frankincense & Myrrh" . 12 apparently do not appear on those discs. Remember, however, that in traditional British music, the same music often has a number of different titles ("The World Turned Upside Down" vs "When the King Comes Into His Own Again " for you Yorktown students, for example.) I think that failure to disclose this duplication is a bit deceptive on the part of the cd maker. But if you can't find all 3 of the cd's I mention - or are willing to take the chance that there are 12 previously unavailable pieces - it may be worth it to you.
