"Through an impressive series of experimental recordings Shirley established an extraordinarily sympathetic marriage of traditional songs handed down through generations of rural labouring people with ground breaking contemporary arrangements - recordings that have scarcely been equalled in subsequent decades. This collection of songs draws together some of her most iconic recordings and will serve as an Introduction to her very special catalogue of music".

"Good" - "This fifteen-track compilation introduces newcomers to the fragile power of Shirley's voice. Drawing almost exclusively on her 60's releases on Topic (...), this is a good value primer if you don't already have these recordings".
