[Notes]
Fresh over from Washington, DC the duo Magpie responded to their first British festival with a couple of superb sets, sending tremors down the spine by yodelling in harmony, and warming the soul with an eclecticism that embraced Jimmie Rodgers, Billie Holiday and their own materiaL.. they are simply, absolutely, unequivocally wonderful They 11 thrill you to your boots, melt your heart ... --Colin Irwin
