The
seven piece group Blue Murder, made up of Waterson:Carthy, Coope,
Boyes and Simpson and Mike Waterson, has been described as "Harmony
Heaven" and one listen is enough to explain why - seven of
the greatest English folk voices performing together with passion
and spirit. The repertoire ranges between great traditional standards,
selected compositions and original songs by some of the band members.
Whilst much of the album is the full glory of the seven voices,
about half of the tracks have the added benefit of Martin Carthy's
understated but impeccable guitar work.
