As regular readers will know, I've long been a fan of Steeleye Span, one of the first folk rock groups to emerge during the 1960's, and still going strong today. Their lead singer for most of that time has been Maddy Prior, who's also a folk artist in her own right, and has produced many independent albums.
Here's one of my favorite solo songs of hers, "Dance On The Wind", one of six from her album "Ravenchild" dealing with ravens and their fascinating lives. You'll find the entire album on YouTube if you like this track.
The exultant closing guitar solo is played by Troy Donockley, well-known as a Uillean piper, who has also performed with Nightwish.
