Betsy Bell and Mary Gray - Steeleye Span descargar videos gratis

Graeme Field

Have not heard this in years, so pleased to find it again. As mentioned it is a very haunting tune and very enigmatic. . .

FFS, you put on a folk playlist while you work and then a song gets you all upset and distracts you. I have deadlines, dammit! Beautiful, beautiful song.

This song is beautiful. And if you get the chance, see it live. The electric violin is gorgeous.

One word...Awesome.

Oh I think it's a great song, very haunting. The fiddle here is the very voice of lamentation, don't you think?

There's another version of this song by Steeleye that they sang a capella. It's stronger than this verion IMHO

One of their best albums, but I have to say it's not their best song, though I love Pete Knight's solos.

Hugh

No problem ;)

Thanks for answering!

According to the sleevenotes from the album, Betsy Bell and Mary Gray were tow women who fled to the Scottish Highlands to escape the plague, but they managed to catch it off a young man who was bringing them food.

Can anybody tell me what the song is about?

NotOrdinaryInGames

I like it too.

Excellent, but I like Martin Carthy's solo version better.
