{"product_id":"vinyl-faithfull-marianne-north-country-maid-vinyl-lp","title":"North Country Maid (Vinyl)","description":"Mariannes second folk album North Country Maid has been remastered from the original tapes by the Grammy nominated Andrew Batt who also provides detailed sleevenotes which Marianne contributed to before her\u003cbr\u003epassing in January 2025\u003cbr\u003eWhere Mariannes first folk album Come My Way, had largely been compiled from music of the American folk revival, her second, released in April 1966 was built around songs from the British Isles. Rightly hailed as Mariannes finest LP of the 60s, North Country Maid conclusively established her as an artist with a unique stylistic\u003cbr\u003eapproach, and many of its songs (such as Scarborough Fair) were not yet the established folk\/pop standards they would soon become. Featuring emotive interpretations of songs by contemporary folk writers like Cyril Tawneys Sally Free And Easy, Bert Janschs Green Are Your Eyes and Ewan MacColls The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, the album also includes traditional material such as the title track and She Moved Thru The Fair, which is one of the few songs Marianne performed throughout her life; it even appears on her final release, the 2025 E.P. Burning Moonlight.\u003cbr\u003eThe album was produced by Mike Leander, and arranged by Jon Mark, who also played acoustic guitar.  He was joined by newcomer Michael John Taylor on second acoustic guitar, Big Jim Sullivan on 12-string and various traditional Indian instruments, Danny Thompson on bass and Alec Hutchison on harmonica.","brand":"SOUTHBOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40425647276233,"sku":"458588","price":70.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/458588-Product-0-I-638917036459426525.jpg?v=1756111781","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/vinyl-faithfull-marianne-north-country-maid-vinyl-lp","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
