Shifting Spirits

Heavily into the otherworldly beauty of sixties and seventies British psychfolk once again at the moment, so I thought I'd share some. If you too feel the urge to look further than your classic Fairport Conventions, Incredible String Bands, and Pentangles, various artists collections are obviously the first way to go. There's a wealth of great compilations floating around, with titles as Feel The Spirit, Gather In The Mushrooms, Shifting Sands, and Early Morning Hush. Here's a charming six pack of tasters that may pull you right in. Hurry hurry, the spirits are calling.

Heron - Lord And Master

Fresh Maggots - Dole Song

Mellow Candle - Sheep Season
Linda Perhacs - Chimacum Rain

Roger Rodier - My Spirit's Calling
