The folk ballad, wrote A. L. Lloyd, "is a folk tale put into verse and set to music. Among British ballads are some of the oldest as well as greatest folksongs we have. " His claim is trenchantly justified by this exceptional collection, as dramas of the distant past are restaged in vibrant performances by Ewan MacColl, Anne Briggs, Louis Killen, Mike Waterson, Norman Kennedy and Lloyd himself.
