What an extremely charming cd called 'Fuzzy Felt Folk' release on the ever weird and wonderful Trunk label. We should have had this in last week but due to a cock-up at the distro we got it late. Sorry guys but circumstances beyond our control. Anyhow now that it's here you can expect a real treat. It's a collection of rare folk oddities that are basically old traditional children's songs which are so sweet and magical you just want to cuddle them. However there is a strange psychedelic element to them. Imagine dropping acid at a teddy bears picnic and tripping out in some mystical forest where the animals talk. This will appeal to those of you that are digging the current folk revival, old acid fried hippies and possibly those of you who have kids. I'm gonna snaffle one of these to play to my little boy and have a right old tree hugger sing-along. How can you possibly go wrong with heart-warming songs about cuckoos, elves, trolls, spiders and teddy bears. Features Basil Kirchin (who you may remember previously had a release on the label), The Barbara Moore Singers, Orriel Smith, Christopher Casson, The Piggleswick Folk and more.
