  • Prodigious and powerful song, performed by prodigious and poweful Sandy, probably as Queen Mary was. Emotions cross the ages... We really have invented noting in the human soul.

  • 422 years to the day since the execution. I'm listening to this over and over. Sandy was only 21 and RT only 19 when this was recorded. Two phenomenal talents.

  • Great evocative video, one of my favourite tracks of all time beautifully rendered.

  • @serengiv Thompson was excellent, this was at another level.

  • really like it - the song and your interpretion of it with the pics.

  • Lovely lovely

  • only this song is enough to give Richard Thomson a genius statut

  • @nezichov perfect statement

  • what a voice.

  • English Folk. This is unequalled, so is she.

  • @bluestate69

    :>)

    There was a lot of beautiful music created in that scene, but it doesn't get much more sublime than this track!

    Interestingly, two Americans, the producer Joe Boyd and the singer/songwriter Jackson C Frank were important figures in the 60's English folk scene. I think you'd find it worth checking out Frank's recordings, Bluestate.

  • @ozruby thanks for the info on this track! i'm just starting to familiarize myself with the incredible folk scene of England in the sixties and seventies. its a shame that music didn't find its way to this side of the pond. bert jansch is also incredible. it also seems that it was a pretty tight nit group as well (all of the folk artists and musicians in 60's & 70's England).
