Steeleye Span were such a great band. Maddy Prior released a superb solo album called "Woman in the Wings". Various members of Jethro tull appear on it too.

Here's one fan's review of it.

"On buying this, I expected something pretty folky, even though the members of Jethro Tull pop up here and there. What I got was a great album with a range of different styles and some humour. The song 'I Told You So' is a comic song in the style of The Andrews Sisters (would you believe). 'Mother And Child' is a sad song with minimal piano accompaniment whereas 'Rosettes' has a distinct erotic subtext (well I think it does!). This is one of my favourite albums and much better than I expected - I must add that all 11 songs were composed by Maddy Prior herself, obviously an under-used songwriter."
