Album Review: Martin Simpson – Rooted

Martin Simpson,”Rooted” (Topic Records)- The release of a new Martin Simpson album  always represents a significant event in the U.K. folk calendar and “Rooted” is thankfully  no exception to the rule , finding this musical master craftsman working with a glittering array of like-minded  luminaries including Nancy Kerr, Richard Hawley and long term collaborator Andy Cutting. If I come across a more compelling roots music package  this year I shall be pleasantly surprised. as Martin displays his peerless instrumental artistry on beguiling ballads such as “Joe Bowers,” “Queen Jane” and the majestic  “Who’s Going To Shoe Your Pretty Little Feet?”
