Maddy Prior & June
Tabor, No More to the
Dance,
LP UK Topic Records 1988 - 12TS 450
It
could be defined as an interlocutory album. The collaborators are many
and of noble rank (think of the guitarist Dan Ar Braz) but this does
not significantly improve the fortunes of this work that appears only
at times convincing.
Si potrebbe definire un album
interlocutorio. I collaboratori sono parecchi e di rango nobile (si
pensi al chitarrista Dan Ar Braz) ma ciò non risolleva
significativamente le sorti di questo lavoro che appare solo a tratti
convincente.
