pentangle - wily o'winsbury

as with Rosemary Lane and the various Polly songs, this number is a suddenly remembered key to doors between ideas for stories that i had thought separate... but realise now to be connected.

i also have Meg Baird's lovely versions of this (and the Fairport steal of course) for example this one with helena espvall and the wonderful sharron kraus.

lyrics.

Pentangle are always lovely to see and hear! And I'm glad to see your writing cogs are turning - as are mine after something of a dry spell.

oh i look forward to sampling the fruits of your labour :-)

my trouble now is that both my current/potential scribblings involve hefty amounts of research... oh the hardship.
not.

Not much to show yet but I can feel my inspiration, motivation and confidence coming back by degrees.

And research... yes, just... yes. :-)

Also, I've just listened to the Meg Baird Helena Espvall and Sharron Kraus version of the song. Wow! Tears and complete awe and the feeling of 'I need more! more! more!'

Ah, I've just itunes-ed it! Early morning bus listening tomorrow, methinks.
