About this album

Parcel Of Rogues is one of Steeleye Span’s most important statements, blending traditional material with a harder electric folk edge. Issued in 1973, the album helped define the band’s reputation for taking old British and Scottish songs into new territory without losing their bite or character. Its mix of stark storytelling, group harmonies and driving arrangements gives the record real force, especially on songs such as “The Weaver And The Factory Maid” and “Rogues In A Nation”. For listeners interested in the early-1970s folk revival, it stands as a key release that connected tradition, social comment and rock intensity.
