		Raised in Pontardawe, a predominantly Welsh-speaking town to the north of Swansea, Mary Hopkin was introduced to public singing very nearly as early as she was able to talk.

		By this time Hopkin was becoming disenchanted with Apple and the public image thrust upon her, and she left the label shortly afterwards to concentrate on raising a family.

		Mary's vocal delivery is truly amazing, especially when you consider just how young she was at the time.
		Listen to it, and Mary Hopkin can have as big a role as many a bigger-named artist in convincing you that indeed those were the days.
		It should have made Hopkin just as big of a star as they were, and probably could have if she hadn't become thoroughly disgusted with the music business and retired immediately after its release, at age 21.

		In her element as a folk artist, Hopkin possesses a strong, lilting, mermaid with a lair vocal delivery, rooted in traditional European folk, that seduces like a cross between a warm vodka and a cold lemonade.
		Mary Hopkin was a little abashed at McCartney's selection of material, preferring the pared-down folk stylings made manifest in her version of "Turn, Turn, Turn," but what was the doe-eyed youngster to do?
		Mary herself may have been a little "taken aback" by having such a spectrum of material to sing, but she comes through with flying colors.

		Mary Hopkin and Sundance was a regretfully short-lived attempt by producer and ex-Springfields member Mike Hurst to revive the sound of the Springfields in the early 1980s -- regretfully because they had a beautifully radiant vocal sound wrapped around surprisingly modernistic (but hardly obtrusive) accompaniment that actually worked as new, contemporary recordings.
		It might amaze anyone who only knows her for "Those Were the Days" to realize that of the 17 songs on this imported CD, only four appeared on either of Mary Hopkin's albums, and that only "Those Were the Days" has been available elsewhere on CD since the mid-'90s.
		This collection is partly related to the similarly titled 11-song LP compilation of Hopkin's work that appeared during 1972.
