Description
Discovered and nurtured by the late, great John Peel, Bridget St John was one of the UK’s leading folk voices of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s.

This comprehensive box set includes the three sensational albums recorded for Peel’s Dandelion label, plus live recordings and recordings made for the BBC between 1968 and 1972.

Albums are packaged in mini LP sleeve replicas and booklet includes memorabilia, sleevenote etc.

BBC material includes songs unavailable elsewhere and collaborations with Kevin Ayers.

66 tracks spread across four discs – great value!

Compiled with the approval of Bridget herself, this is a must for any collector of UK folk.

This was originally put out last year, but recalled almost immediately due to contractural issues. Copies did made it to retail -- and can be purchased via Amazon USA third party sellers -- but now the box is finally going to be released "officially".
