Some Ballads Of Anna Gordon Mrs. Brown Of Falkland
Some Ballads of Anna Gordon, Mrs. Brown of Falkland is a major event for ballad scholarship: Classic versions of twelve ballads from one of the earliest and most famous Scottish sources in a double CD, with notes and commentary by leading singers and scholars. The repertoire of Anna Gordon, collected in the closing years of the eighteenth century, has long been a standard reference-point for folklorists but never before has it actually been heard.
