I got that Anne Briggs EP, Hazards of Lov. was captivated by this woman’s voice and what she did with it. Anne Briggs was and still is one of the most enigmatic figures of the ‘60‘s and ‘70s folk scene, perceived by many as a reclusive-genius and as a rebel for shunning commercial success. Her decision to leave the folk scene in the 70’s for a life in Scotland as conservation worker and market trader have if anything increased her mythical status, something she was pretty much unaware of when she was interviewed by The Guardian for the reissue of her 1971 album The Time Has Come. Anne was born in 1944 in Toton, Beeston, Nottinghamshire. Her mother died of TB when she was young and her father was severely injured during WWII. She was brought up by her aunt and uncle who also lived in Toton.

Anne Briggs' beautiful, soft yet all the more emotional voice was the instrument that led the English folk revival that was one of the most important events of the 1960s. This and Sing A Song For You show how well she was able to convey traditional folk tales in an intimate, spontaneous manner that can ring a bell even in a time and place so remote from these realities. 5 people found this helpful.
