<p>back in stock! at a first glance - and perhaps if you were not entirely familiar with the extraordinary works of davy graham - you could be forgiven for thinking that this album was some sort of cheesy 60s singer-songwriter crap, given the somewhat gaudy cover. in fact, what is contained within the 14 tracks of this album couldn't be further from that first impression. highly influential, though often overlooked, british folk guitarist/vocalist davy graham recorded several albums during the 1960s and then went into semi-retirement. this '69 outing, which features solid support by the pentangle's bassist danny thompson and drummer john spooner, showcases graham's dynamic acoustic guitar work, with the trio running through a set of (primarily) pop and blues standards, including the beatles' 'getting better', simon &amp; garfunkel's 'homeward bound', and willie dixon's 'hoochie coochie man'. the most intriguing tracks, however, are those that veer further left of field, particularly graham's stunning solo instrumental takes on jazz legend art blakey's 'buhaina chant' and the traditional 'bulgarian dance', which creates a hypnotically frenetic vibe. adventurous, eclectic, and consistently well-executed, hat is a lost gem that is sure to please open-minded fans of late-'60s british folk.</p>
