      @@michaelbedford8017 Don't forget Annie Haslam either. I fell in love with her voice when our AOR station here in Pittsburgh played Scheherazade and Other Stories for their midnight album back in the day. (Random observation...in every Steeleye Span video I've seen, it looks like Maddy is having the time of her life.)
      You aren't THE Michael Bedford, are you? You know, "More than a Kiss?"

    Unlike yours truly, this hasn't aged a day. There's something truly magical about this performance, with the harmonies caressing my soul. Maddy is such a gorgeous girl, and what a voice she has. The fella's aren't bad, either.

    The technology of the time was so much more advanced than many people realise. The electric instruments are all cordless, and the violin can even produce a pizzicato sound when being played with the bow. Amazing!

      So amazing that it sounds like a mandolin. Ah, the joys of mime.

    • @BiggerMike69
      @BiggerMike69 2 місяці тому

      They used to try and replicate the original record. The musicians would go into studio and lay down the backing track which was used as playback, this allowed the musicians to be flamboyant when TOTP was performed, hence the bowed pizzicato. The vocals would often then be sung live. It’s such a close harmony, I’m in two minds as to whether they were miming or not.

    Been enjoying Steeleye Span for over 40 years now. Renaissance, too. My goodness, did I have the hots for Maddy and Annie Haslam back then. Maddy, Annie, Sandy Denny and Alison Krauss are on my Mt. Rushmore of Angelic Voices.

    The best thing about Maddy's performance is that, unlike too many artists today, she is not trying to be "sexy", she is just singing a song and trying to express it in the mood of the song.
    Incidentally, she is charming, expressive, and cheery, all of which make her naturally sexy.

    Ses incredible considering it was the same year that the Sex Pistols made their debut with Anarchy..
    Yet ironically Steeleye brought out (in my opinion) their best album that year; as old fashioned as they were in that era.

    All around my hat I will wear the green willow
    And all around my hat for a twelve-month and a day
    And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
    It's all for my true love who's far, far away
    Fare thee well cold winter and fare thee well cold frost
    Nothing have I gained but my own true love I've lost
    I'll sing and I'll be merry when occasion I do see
    He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
    The other night he brought me a fine diamond ring
    But he thought to have deprived me of a far better thing
    But I being careful like lovers ought to be
    He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
    And all around my hat I will wear the green willow
    And all around my hat for a twelve-month and a day
    And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
    It's all for my true love who's far, far away
    Here's a half a pound of reasons, and a quarter pound of sense
    A small sprig of time and as much of prudence
    You mix them all together and you will plainly see
    He's a false deluding young man, let him go farewell he
    And all around my hat I will wear the green willow
    And all around my hat for a twelve-month and a day
    And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
    It's all for my true love who's far far away
    All around my hat I will wear the green willow
    And all around my hat for a twelve-month and a day
    And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
    It's all for my true love who's far, far away
    All around my hat I will wear the green willow
    And all around my hat for a twelve-month and a day
    And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
    It's all for my true love who's far, far away
