Steeleye Span - Now We Are Six

Recorded at Morgan Studios, Willesden, London, December '73 and January '74. Produced by Steeleye Span and Robin Black, mixed by Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson. The title was a clever reminder that this was the sixth album and the band now had six members - Nigel had just joined. Davie Bowie was superstar guest artiste and played saxophone on To Know Him Is to Love Him. It was his first session helping out another band “and he was very shy”. Apart from this, the outstanding tracks were Thomas the Rhymer and Seven Hundred Elves, both with music from Bob Johnson sounding heavier and more amplified than the band had been before. In contrast, there were two songs showing Maddy's whimsical sense of humour. For Now We Are Six, a set of medieval riddles, and the nursery rhyme Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, the St. Eleye Primary School Junior Choir took over. The male members of the band rolled up their trousers in the studio and sang falsetto, while Peter - described on the sleeve as “Miss Knight” - played piano.
