Peter Bellamy, Both Sides Then,
LP UK Topic Records 1979 - 12TS 400
Peter
performs English and American songs on this album and takes a firm
stand, in the liner notes, against the rampant chauvinism: musical
traditions have no barriers. Various musicians collaborate on this
album, including Dave Swarbrick, Royston & Heater Wood and the
Watersons. The recording was made at Livingston Studios with the help
of Nic Kinsey. The cover reproduces "The Snuff Taker", a painting by
Pieter Van de Bellmaan, now preserved at the Victoria Street Gallery.
