Steeleye Span - Following Me
Review by John McDuffie
Following Me is an exceptional album by the legendary British folk rock band, Steeleye Span. The album, released in 1979, showcases the band's signature sound, featuring a mix of traditional folk songs and original compositions.
The album opens with the title track, "Following Me," a haunting ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's tight harmonies and intricate instrumentation shine throughout the album, particularly on tracks like "Saucy Sailor" and "The Weaver and the Factory Maid."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Blacksmith," a traditional folk song that the band infuses with their own unique style. Maddy Prior's vocals are particularly impressive on this track, as she effortlessly navigates the song's complex melody.
