Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Grandson of Morris On has distinguished ancestors: it's 30 years since Hutchings produced Morris On, a collection of traditional tunes for the Morris dance played by a group of folk luminaries, now reckoned to be among the most influential albums in British folk music. In the interim there was Son of Morris On (1976), and now comes Hutchings' brain grandchild--essentially, as before, a set of traditional Morris melodies such as "Glorishears", "Shepherds' Hey" and "The Blue Eyed Stranger", as well as songs and rhymes, but with a sprinkling of new tunes and new dances, mirroring how both Morris dancing and the music that accompanies it have broadened their repertory. In Hutchings' words, "It reflects what I think the modern Morris scene is about." The settings are various combinations of melodeon, fiddles, guitar, harmonica and other instruments, played by a cast that includes old Albion Band hands Ric Sanders and Dave Whetstone and Hutchings' current partner in the Ridgeriders, Phil Beer. --Tony Russell

3.0 out of 5 stars Another Fairport offshoot, 21 Oct 2002
By A Customer
If you buy this record it's because you remember those great Albion band albums that Hutchings produced in the late 70's, or because you recognise the name Chris Leslie as a lead singer from the current line-up of Fairport Convention. Compared to the original "Morris On" album of 30 years ago, this one is not quite so rockin'. There are a couple of proper folk-rock tracks - "The Snake" and "Le Halle" but most are jolly bouncing acoustic tracks. The opening track "Blue-Eyed Stranger" and "Little Johnny England" are the best. You really want to to be buying the boxed set "Fairport Unconventional" instead of this, though.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not As Good As The First Two, 11 Aug 2004
By Lindsay Seagrim-trinder "Bookworm" (South Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a former Cotswold Morris Musician (now playing for the Widders Welsh Border Morris - check us out!!) I already own and absolutely adore Morris On and Son of Morris On (bought on vinyl in the 70s from W H Smith in Banbury). I had imagined that Grandson of Morris On would be up to the previous standard, and I was, frankly, disappointed. It seemed to lack the "spontaneity" of its predecessors and never seemed to "get going" somehow, and the contributors didn't seem to be having as much fun as on the two previous recordings. Sorry guys.
