Gone are the days when a band perform a song with their fingers in their ears.

Not quite, they place their hands in such a way as to amplify the external voice in comparison to what is transmitted internally through the bones

I long for the days when something as obscure as this could become a chart hit and be played on commercial radio. But then it was the 70s. Music's greatest decade.

@colinslant 5 месяцев назад

Mind you, it was 1981 when "O Superman (for Massenet)" by Laurie Anderson got to number 2 in the UK chart. That's pretty obscure!

100% Her Jacqui McShee, Sandy Denny, Shirley Collins & Judy Collins are my favorite women Folk artists. Any fans of Mumford & Sons, Laura Marling, The Lumineers or any of those Modern Folk artists & bands should really listen to bands like Steeleye Span, Pentangle to appreciate Folk music.

Can't thank you enough for the video. It brought tears to my eyes. I saw them live in October 1973 as the warm up band for Procol Harum. I was completely blown away. I fell in love with Maddy and her almost impossibly great voice, bought the album in the theater foyer and have owned several copies since. It is an experience I have never forgotten and never will.

Someone once told me the Eagles hated Steely Dan and the line in 'Hotel California' "They can cut it with their steely knives but they still can't kill the beast" was a dig at them. I got confused and thought it was Steeleye Span they hated and had this mental image of the Eagles swearing at the radio whenever 'All around my hat' was played.

@BillSingleton-bx5jd 14 дней назад

First concert I believe was at Salford University. They had trouble setting up so left it to the backroom team, went to the mikes and sang Gaudete, a sensation still remembered over 50 years later!

A wonderful antidote to todays over produced and autotuned tracks that clutter the airways today. Just get every band singer to try and carry this off without any 'enhancement' and see what we're left with? Maddy/Steeleye Span rules!'

@PLuMUK54 5 месяцев назад

When I hear other versions of this song, they sound like an interpretation of what it possibly sounded like. This, however, always sounds so "genuine". They obviously would have spent hours rehearsing this, but it has a spontaneity and unpolished quality that takes me back to a Medieval church where a far from professional group of parishioners have been taught the Latin and sing it with meaning. Takes me back to my younger years...

@TimothyJarrett-uq9np 5 месяцев назад

So taken by this chant was I that I went to launde abbey and asked a good father to translate it...he did..except for one or two words that he told me where medieval Latin and he wasn't sure...and signed the translation.."made this poor effort"...such humility is unknown to most of us...I've been a steelye span fan ever since and cannot thank the good father enough.❤

@neilsharman4704 Год назад

My first reaction was to think it is way too slow. The word Gaudete means rejoice, and it sounded gloomy. Then I realised that you can hear the harmonies really clearly and the clarity in Maddie's voice. It also sounds more sort of bleak and wintry like this. A lovely interpretation.
