calimacFrom a press release ... "the band approach their 2011 tour" - not that I'm going to be able to hear this; they're only touring England, and southern and a bit of midlands England at that - "with not one but two new members. Joining Maddy Prior, Peter Knight, Rick Kemp and Liam Genockey are guitarist Julian Littman and multi-instrumentalist Pete Zorn." Well, Ken Nicol, the competent but uninspiring guitarist who took over when Bob Johnson retired didn't last very long after all, did he? "Now playing as a six piece for the first time in many years, Steeleye Span have chosen this tour to revisit one of their most iconic albums, Now We Are Six - playing the record in its entirety to open the show." In its entirety? Does that mean the two tracks of nursery rhymes in childish falsetto, too?
