Anne Briggs "The Time Has Come"

Anne Briggs "The Time Has Come" (1971 CBS) 「LP」

Backed by guitar and dulcimer, the willowy character of Briggs' voice is free to emerge. This album is solidly in a UK hippie/folkie vibe, dreamy and reflective, with gentle, sprawling, Nick Drake-ish songs, over half of which were written by Briggs. A nice, stare-out-the-window-in-early spring kind of record. Highly recommended

アン・ブリックスのソロとしては二作目。トラッドな第一作目も素晴らしいのですが、コンテンポラリーな選曲も一段と成長を遂げた。英国フォークの歌姫です。
