A folk rock album, charts MIKE LEVON's and HOLYGROUND's early career from 1966 to 1971, music from Moodie's Bar, a centre fro folk singers and writers, in Wakefield, the Bretton Hall and ending up with recordings from the Cass Yard. The records made at Moodie's Bar, and subsequently at the Bretton were recorded straight to master tapes often just using plastic mikes supplied with domestic tape recorders. On moving to Cass' yard Mike bought a "Brennell", two mixing desks were installed and he also invested in a couple of AKG mikes. The sound quality improved! Bands include NUMBER 9 BREAD STREET, CROSS SECTION, A TO AUSTR, BILL NELSON, THUNDERMOTHER, ASTRAL NAVIGATIONS and JUMBLE LANE.
