Additional information
Personnel includes: Shirley Collins (vocals); Davy Graham (guitar). Personnel: Davy Graham (guitar). Arrangers: Shirley Collins; Davy Graham. Often cited as one of the most influential 1960s folk records to come from England, FOLK ROUTES, NEW ROUTES left Jimmy Page and Bert Jansch awestruck in its wake. Bear in mind that Shirley Collins was present when Alan Lomax discovered Fred McDowell, the ferocious slide-guitar bluesman. Most of the songs on FOLK ROUTES, NEW ROUTES are traditional reworkings with Shirley channeling old souls. "Reynardine" is an expressively haunting tale; Collins' voice hovers and wraps around dazzling finger-picking. Graham's unique tunings, which utilize Middle Eastern modalities, are prominent on tracks like "Hares on the Mountain" and "Boll Weevil Holler." The instrumental "Rid Mountain" allows for Graham's playing to truly shine. A definite high-water mark in the folk revival canon, FOLK ROUTES, NEW ROUTES is a timeless work waiting to be rediscovered.
Reviews
Q (11/99, p.162) - Included in Q Magazine's Best Folk Albums of All Time - "...married his guitar style...with her poignant voice. The result sent shockwaves through the folk establishment..." The Wire (p.56) - "[T]he results have an ecstatic fever that is undeniable....Graham's arrangements and playing are miles away from the standard folk-pluck of the day, and Collins doesn't try to contemporise her approach....These disparate styles fit together beautifully." The Wire (12/00, p.37) - "...On this record Collins' ice maiden voice seems to occupy an airy space, floating cloudlike, chiming like a distance bell in an otherwise still and silent landscape....an effortless combination of American and English traditional song....with complex combination of influences..." Dirty Linen (2-3/00, pp.58-9) - "...renowned for being landmarks of the British folk revival....[Graham] was the first to bring jazz and blues elements to the popular folk tunes of the time....credit must also go to Collins and her stark and powerful voice, an affecting instrument..." Mojo (Publisher) (p.64) - Ranked #10 in Mojo's "2005 Folk Albums Of The Year." Mojo (Publisher) (p.72) - "[A] mix of the trad and the (proto) trippy that still beguiles today."
