There are few female folk singers with the natural talent of Anne Briggs, and although she never became a major star, it is difficult to overstate her influence on the British folk scene of the '60s and '70s. Discovered when she was not even 18 years old in a local club in 1962, she went on to release three albums between 1971 and 1973 before abandoning the scene. This is her third and last solo album, recorded in 1973, and finally released in the 1990s as Sing A Song For You. Not surprisingly, given Briggs' talent, the album has since become known as "lost classic." These brilliant versions of British folk standards and original material are delivered with the kind of rare sincerity and natural vocal ability that slices through time, straight to the soul.
