Details:
Limited Edition .. In 1972 Barry Dransfield recorded his debut solo album. Just called "Barry Dransfield" the album is a real delight from start to finish.

Record Hunter voted him "the rarest folk album" and Tapestry Of Delights book described it as "along with Vashti Bunyans "Just a diamond day" this debut solo album full of enchanting folk
