Magenta - Canterbury Moon (1978 uk acid folk rock - Kissing Spell records edition - MP3 320K and FLAC)

Magenta first appeared as a four piece folk act in 1974, playing clubs and concerts in and around Weston-Super-Mare, and specialising in vocal harmony based around three female voices.

With the departure of two of the founding members in 1975, Janet and Arthur Brown carried on as a brother and sister team until the summer of 1976 when they were joined by Mervyn Brown who broadened the scope of the band to include some powerful vocals and a touch of humour.

They were finally brought back up to strength with the arrival of multi-instrumentalist Pete Thompson in August 1977, following the demise of the popular traditional duo Broken Spectre.

Recorded in 1978 this is a fine and rare slice of UK folk rock with great interchange male/female vocals over lilting acoustic tracks that use a selection of instruments such as dulcimers, mandolins, guitars, flutes etc (Kissing Speel).
