There is no album closer to my heart than Bright Phoebus credited to Mike and Lal Waterson, (it involves their sister, Norma). It’s finally been properly released on CD by Domino Martin Carthy plays on every track alongside Richard Thompson who is on almost every song. The deeply Yorkshire voices singing new material reaches right into the modern age. If you have never heard The Watersons, it might take a moment to hear what is going, but give yourself a chance.
