Marianne Faithful singing "As Tears Go By" introduced and interviewed by Brian Epstein, then manager of The Beatles, plus a glimpse of Paul Anka hosting the TV program "Hullabaloo".

Comment by peterfrederics January 25I am not normally into 1970s traditional folk but rather liked this s/t album released in 1970 by Heron, particularly the tracks "Yellow Roses", "Upon Reflection" and "Lord and Master".
in What are you listening to right now (on the floor, 25 or 6 to 4)? Comment by peterfrederics January 25Not truly a cover version but more a reworking of The Allman Brothers Band's "Whipping Post", is the really enjoyable "Whip That Ghost" by Motorpsycho.
