Steeleye Span - The Best Of Steeleye Span

Review by Bryan Torres

The Best of Steeleye Span by Steeleye Span is a collection of some of the finest tracks from the British folk-rock band. The album features 18 tracks that showcase the band's unique sound, which blends traditional folk music with rock and roll instrumentation.

The album opens with "Gaudete," a traditional Christmas carol that the band turned into a hit single in 1973. The track features the band's signature use of electric guitar, bass, and drums, along with the haunting vocals of Maddy Prior.

Other standout tracks on the album include "All Around My Hat," a catchy tune that was a top 5 hit in the UK in 1975, and "Thomas the Rhymer," a traditional Scottish ballad that the band turned into a psychedelic epic.

The Best of Steeleye Span is a great introduction to the band's music for those who are unfamiliar with their work. It's also a must-have for fans who want to revisit some of their favorite tracks from over the years.

Sorry folks, i m a f..g kraut and at the moment am ashamed of our gouvernment sorry for that. But germans are likr that this times. Me still on this peaceful tratitionall music. Do not trust az the moment to this fashidt germans. They are influenced by the reichsfunk and new fuhrers named the green party. Never trust them!!!

I have this on vinyl as "individually and collectively". The tracks are taken from the first three steeleye albums plus a solo album of Tim Hart and Maddy, and one or two of Martin carthy.

Best you could do is encode this album at 96k ???
All the great ones that I download are encoded at 160k and some even at 330k
I think you need to redo this upload and encode it at 320k for audio.
