Gypsy without a road (CD)
Reissue on CD by this great British acid folk album, originally released in '77 ! Original vinyl version of this album is now valued above GBP 100. Miriam Backhouse started singing in British folk Clubs in the mid-seventies and quickly gained a big reputation as a new young performer of traditional material. Miriam plays guitar to accompany herself but her debut album has the addition of keyboards and bass arrangements by Brian Etheridge and Stephen Delft on dulcimer. At the end of 1979 Miriam moved to South Africa with her then new husband, musician John Erasmus. They quickly built up a solid reputation as performers, recorded several albums and featured on many television programmes. "Gypsy Without A Road" features English traditional songs alongside two Rosie Hardman songs beautifully sung and arranged, and a haunting version of Will Williams' "The Farmers Have Gone East".
