	Green Linnet - Artists - June Tabor
		Testament to June's range and versatility is the way she switches from incredible intensity to the light-hearted songs and melting harmonies which define her work with Maddy Prior as Silly Sisters.
		She continued to record, however, making Aqaba in 1988, another emotional masterpiece, followed soon by the Silly Sisters album with Maddy Prior, Once More to the Dance.
		After selling the restaurant and finally being lured into a full-time musical career, June began work on a number of significant collaborations, notably a classic folk-rock album with the Oyster Band (Freedom and Rain) and with harpist Savourna Stevenson and bassist Danny Thompson on Singing the Storm.

	Steeleye Span History
		Re band history, Ashley Hutchings of Fairport Convention formed the band in late 1969 with Terry and Gay Woods and Maddy Prior and Tim Hart.
		And Bob Johnson & Peter Knight put out an album called The King Of Elfland's Daughter back in the late 70s or early 80s.
		They did one album, HARK THE VILLAGE WAIT, with that line-up.

	June Tabor, A Quiet Eye
		I was unaware of this personal connection when I first heard her sing on the highly praised and (for a "folk" record) very successful Silly Sisters album that she
		The jazz album did not mark a major breakthrough in terms of instrumentation, but the following year Tabor raised some eyebrows with her collaboration with the English folk-rockers The Oyster Band, which produced concert appearances and a new record, Freedom and Rain, again mixing traditional and contemporary songs.
		More than any of Tabor's other albums, moreover, this one is stamped throughout with Huw Warren's prominent piano-playing (not to mention his composing and arranging), which seems to me almost to justify giving him equal billing with Tabor, as was done for Martin Simpson and the Oyster Band on the recordings referred to above.

	Ectophiles' Guide - June Tabor
		For solo stuff Airs and Graces, Abyssinians, or the Aspects or Anthology compilations; her Silly Sisters albums are great, and if you want to hear how she can rock out, get June Tabor and the Oyster Band 's Freedom and Rain.
		I've got a handful of her albums, including a Silly Sisters album with Maddy Prior, so I had a fair idea of what she'd sound like.
		I have been a June Tabor fan since first hearing the Silly Sisters, and have heard her live several times.

	With anger and attire, twisted Scissor Sisters cut to the heart of glitter rock Scissor Sisters embrace glitter ball and silly names
		It's easy to mistrust Scissor Sisters because of their peacock getups and silly rock 'n' roll aliases -- the drummer is, in fact, called Paddy Boom.
		Yet Scissor Sisters have a secret weapon in singer Jake Shears, who not only possesses a glass-shattering falsetto but also manages to give songs that sound like a mutant cross between "Faith" and "Tiny Dancer" unexpected depth.
		In "Take Your Mama Out," meanwhile, a single that helped make Scissor Sisters superstars in Europe earlier this year, he slinks across the stage like Justin Timberlake while urging fans to tell their parents they're gay.

	The New Traditions Of Britain
		Eliza Carthy is about to release her first solo album, called Heat Light and Sound [Topic], featuring a semielectric band.
		Among the highlights of the album is the plaintive, graceful Celtic harp of the 1990 Radio 2 Young Tradition Award winner, Ingrid Henderson, accompanied by her brother Allan on fiddle.
		The set is made up of mostly traditional songs, and the album opens with a gorgeous version of "The Recruited Collier." The album follows along a central theme of the loss of life (young men in particular) in the horrors of war.

	BBC - Rock & Alt Review - Scissor Sisters, Scissor Sisters
		Both the album and the band are not afraid to be fabulous, and for that alone they deserve your full attention.
		Usually every album has a few crap songs thrown in to fill the gap but this is awesome from start to finish.
		I absolutely adore this album, it may not be to everyones taste, but it certainly is a classic.

	Amazon.com: Music: Be Yourself Tonight
		One, however, cannot say that the overhyped feminist anthem "Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" was anything other than inanely catchy and silly, though Aretha's voice and the playing of Tom Petty's band allowed Lennox and Stewart to get away with ridiculously silly anthemism far better than Springsteen did on "Hungry Heart".
		Some of Eurythmics most literate and profound work is found here, but it's serious stuff and not always as accessible as their other masterpieces like Sweet Dreams or Revenge.
		Casting off their rep for digital iciness, the Eurythmics got Be Yourself Tonight over on electric fire and the fluttering warmth of Annie Lennox's voice; the first two seconds of "There Must Be an Angel" are the prettiest seconds ever recorded.

	Interview With Maddy Prior
		Maddy herself always had a number of projects apart from the band: Silly Sisters (with June Tabor), The Carnival Band and the Maddy Prior Band among them.
		Along with her solo work, she still performs occasionally with the Carnival Band and with ex-members of Steeleye in various combinations, so the pace of her life is probably only slightly less hectic than when she was a full time member of the band.
		And so the long and changing career of Maddy Prior continues with as much momentum as ever.

		Featuring band members with names such as the Del Marquis on Guitar and Baby Daddy on Bass along with Paddy Boom on Drums and Ana Matronic on lead female vocals.
		Lead singer Jake Shears has an infatuation with including haircutting references in the songs, and making that lifestyle part of his band name.
		If only they took the first riff of each song which is usually pretty quality and didn’t ruin it with silly, dancy beats that pervade the rest of the track.

		Silly Sisters is a collaboration between Maddy Prior, vocalist of Steeleye Span, and June Tabor, the queen of British folk.
		On the 1977 album, Silly Sisters, they were joined by Steeleye Span's Martin Carthy (later associated with the Pogues) among a host of other capable musicians.
		Most often, either Prior or Tabor takes a "lead" role in a song, with the other providing backup, but on a few tracks, like "My Husband's Got No Courage In Him", a harrowing (from the male perspective) a capella lament, they both shine equally alongside each other.

	Green Linnet - Artists - June Tabor
		Testament to June's range and versatility is the way she switches from incredible intensity to the light-hearted songs and melting harmonies which define her work with Maddy Prior as Silly Sisters.
		This is the same June Tabor who belted her highly-individual brand of rock with the full-force backing of the Oyster Band, and the singer that swept seamlessly from traditional songs to popular classics like Somewhere Over the Rainbow with the Creative Jazz Orchestra.
		It is typical of June that she decided to drop the song from her set -- a guaranteed show-stopper -- in case its impact became diluted by over-familiarity.
