death and the lady

Though they remain largely unknown, Michael Raven and Joan Mills made some of the most evocative and distinctive folk music ever recorded. 'Death And The Lady' combines Raven's virtuoso guitar playing (which draws on both British and Spanish traditions) with Mills pure and haunting voice to spellbinding effect. Pressed in a run of only 250 vinyl copies in 1972, it has barely been heard since. It is presented here complete with detailed background notes and rare photographs, and is a truly essential addition to any folk collection.
