Comments
with original Mercury inner sleeve.
Inside The Groove
Seldom-known(?) folk group's (maybe) only album on Mercury label.
Personal Impression (and brief notes)
Sounds like ordinary Folk music by ordinary group, as I am not well acquainted with this kind of music :(
At least, I really enjoyed their smooth singing and talented guitar ringing. Nice.
Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)
6 out of 10
