FAIRPORT CONVENTION- Liege & Lief (1969)

Great British electric folk-rock starts here. This is the record that started it all, a collection of impeccable tunes sung with desperate ferocity by Sandy Denny. I used to think this was mere folk music and I was probably quick to dismiss it as just another acoustic guitar meets whinny vocals type of record. But I was a fool. This is a sensational electric folk LP with so much invention within it makes me wonder how they even made it.
