... but this is a good one, I reckon!
Spotted in Sainsbury's this morning - for just £3
"Meet On The Ledge - The Collection" (UMG)
18 tracks -all bar one of which are (or appear to be) taken from the Island albums:
Come All Ye
MOTL
WKWTTG
She Moves Through The Fair
Matty Groves
Si Tu Dois Partir
Farewell, Farewell
Big William
Now Be Thankful (BBC session - presumably previously released on the Live at the BBC set?)
Bonny Black Hare
Angel Delight
Wizard Of The Worldly Game
John Lee
Breakfast in Mayfair
A Sailor's Life
Rosie
Rising For The Moon
Cropredy Capers
A couple of interesting selections there (Big William, Cropredy Capers), but not a bad balance (IMO) between the more "commercial" songs that should engage a casual buyer & a few of the more "classic" pieces from the repertoire. Quite a decent booklet with notes from Rob Young and some nice photos too. All in all, a more than reasonable introduction...
(Good colour pic of the AD/JBL lineup on the front - pity the big red £3 sticker was right over Peggy's head).
