"A small but prolific operation servicing Britain's northwest folk club scene, the Folk Heritage label was launched in 1968 by Alan Green, a former chemist-turned-record producer ... Compiled and curated with great care, it's a worthy tribute to Green's vision and an appropriate final chapter for Grapefruit's marvelous U.K. folk trilogy, which began with 2015's Dust on the Nettles and 2020's Sumer Is Icumen In".

"Grapefruit's "buried folk treasure" series continues with an extensive label spotlight; 68 tracks from Folk Heritage and its associated imprints, from late '60s through the '70s, typically culled from severely limited editions. No one here reached Fairport/Steeleye/Shirley Collins levels of appreciation, but songs associated with those icons received equally vibrant treatments: The Wayfarers' "Matty Groves", The Bards' "Blackleg Miner", Michael Raven and Joan Mills' "Death And The Lady". With the notable exception of Bristol teens Folkal Point, the folk-rock and singer-songwriter entries (...) are less essential; Folk Heritage did trad best, often to stark and blood-curdling effect".
