SLEEVE STRONG VG+ (please, see pictures and read above description)
By far the most rock-oriented of Fairport Convention's early albums, this debut was recorded
before Sandy Denny joined the band (Judy Dyble handles the female vocals).
Unjustly overlooked by listeners who consider the band's pre-Denny output insignificant,
this is a fine folk-rock effort that takes far more inspiration from West Coast '60s sounds than traditional British folk.
Fairport's chief strengths at this early juncture were the group's interpretations, particularly
in the harmony vocals, of obscure tunes by American songwriters such
as Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Emitt Rhodes, and Jim & Jean...(AllMusic)
