Synopsis

Album Description
Live archive release from the Folk legend. As the father figure and guiding spirit of the English Folk revival of the 1960s, Martin Carthy was involved in the formation of at least three major English folk-rock bands; Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span and The Albion Band. The January Man is the first ever official release of a Martin Carthy live solo album, and is released with Carthy's full approval. This towering performance, recorded in FM quality in 1978, shows an artist who was a legend even then and whose brilliance is merely underlined with the passing of time.
