I already wrote about it in a recent past, as I much love this music and these awesome musicians… owned and cherished for half a century the original Folkways’ and the elusive Transatlantic UK pressing, mostly bought for the weird cover…
but this Japanese CD I’m right now playing is a joy to listen to 🤟💫🤟

Gosh, I haven't thought about that LP for decades but there was a time in the early to mid-70s when it seemed to be everywhere in UK shops and it was never ever full-price; I seem to remember buying a copy for around GBP1.50. And now I have no recollection of the music itself -- but the cover (the Transatlantic sleeve, I mean) has become very evocative of a certain period...
I think there was this, along with the other Transatlantic guitar samplers, perhaps Rev Gary Davis Ragtime Guitar' as well, and they were all cheap -- that was why we bought them as late-teenagers: we trusted the Transatlantic label (Renbourn, Jansch, Pentangle) and we desperately needed records we could afford... Hence the Transatlantic samplers.
Thanks for your recollection and comment, Alun 🙏💫🙏
