    About this album

    Commoners Crown is a standout Steeleye Span album, sharpening the band’s British folk-rock blend with vivid traditional material and inventive arrangements. Released in 1975, it features the group’s hallmark mix of electrified backing, tight harmonies and a strong respect for folk source songs, giving old ballads and dances a new urgency without losing their roots. The album includes well-known pieces such as Little Sir Hugh, Long Lankin and New York Girls, alongside the playful Bach Goes To Limerick, showing the band’s range from dark narrative songs to wry instrumental imagination. It remains one of the group’s most admired mid-1970s releases.
