This is a love song to humanity. Featuring songs based loosely on old English folk tales, it tells stories of ordinary people: sailors on a smuggling ship, star crossed lovers, soldiers on the eve of war. At once ancient and contemporary, the album delivers folk music in its truest sense - which is music of the people, by the people, for the people
