15/1001 I would consider myself a pretty big fan of the American folk and folk rock sound, and I’m therefore hugely disappointed that I’ve never heard of British folk-rock. Unhalfbricking was apparently the album, where Fairport Convention started to incorporate more British folk into their sound, and I really love it. The mix of it all is just pleasant and delightful to listen to. Though the A-side has some great tracks like the opener and A Sailor’s Life, the B-side is really where the album goes from good to great. Featuring a variety of more traditional folk tracks and electric ones, it’s most interesting moment is their almost Grateful Dead-esque jam on the traditional A Sailor’s Life. While Cajun Woman kicks off the B-side in electric fashion owing a great deal of its sound to Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited, while incorporating more traditional folk instrumentation into the mix, making for one hell of a song. Overall this is a phenomenal album, that I’m glad I got to know. 4,5/5
