Says the record label:
A lusty romp through the 17th-century tradition, with a repertoire that extends from bawdy street ballads to Playford dances and Purcell rounds.
Superb singing voices are matched by instrumentation that includes lute, fiddle, smallpipes, pipe and tabor, shawm, orpharion and hurdy-gurdy.
Here is early music played with all the zest of a contemporary folk band and - with 29 tracks and over 60 minutes of playing time - a very generous offering.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
