Never The Same celebrates the lost years of British folk:
the 1970s. As far as mass popularity goes, the folk scene
most definitely peaked in the 1960s -- with Bert Jansch,
Anne Briggs, Martin Carthy, Davy Graham and all. By the
end of the sixties, according to conventional wisdom, it
had morphed into folk rock (Fairport Convention and
Steeleye Span) or singer-songwriters (Nick Drake and John
Martyn), prior to disappearing into a netherworld of
beards and real ale. But what the pop histories don't tell
you is that the seventies were the real golden years for
British folk music. The scene had gone underground,
disappeared into the now totally unfashionable world of
the folk clubs But the musicians who'd come up in the
heady years of the sixties hadn't gone away: they were
just getting better and better. The trouble was the major
record labels weren't interested, not even the more folk-
friendly indies like Island and Transatlantic. There was
one exception, a man called Bill Leader. Leader was the
man who had been behind the mixing desk on almost every
major British folk record of the sixties, from Anne
Briggs' first EP to Davy Graham's Anji to Bert Jansch's
bedroom debut. In 1969, seeing a yawning gap in the
market, he finally started his own label. Some of the
names he signed up were already familiar on the folk scene
-- like Lal and Mike Waterson from the legendary singing
family The Watersons. Most, however, were new names,
emerging stars from the folk club scene. There was Dick
Gaughan, a shy Scotsman who had to be talked into making
records; and Nic Jones from Essex, who was close to giving
up the unequal struggle to make a living from music when
Leader signed him up. Over the next ten years Leader put
out a series of albums of a standard unmatched by any
other major folk label. Not all of it was straight
traditional folk. Leader was always open to
experimentation and released albums as varied as the psych
folk of Dave and Toni Arthur, the singer-songwriting of
Rosie Hardman, and the elaborate arrangements of John
Tams' 'Muckram Wakes.' He also released the peerless song
suite Bright Phoebus by Lal & Mike Waterson, and two of
the songs here represent this lost classic. But at the
heart of the label's output were very simple virtues:
great singers and great instrumentalists playing and
singing the traditional music of Britain. So here, for the
first time, is a compilation of the lost wonders of the
Leader label, repository of the hidden history of British
folk music." Artists: Lal Waterson, Nic Jones, Dorothy
Elliott, Alistair Anderson, Dick Gaughan, Dave Burland,
Aly Bain, The Boys of the Lough, Tony Rose.
