This '79 album is "essentially a set of pieces centered around the fingerstyle steel-string guitar. Some are original and others are borrowed from the lute or keyboard or based on folk tunes. The arrangements include light instrumentation and are rather more extended than previously. Tony Roberts again contributed the woodwind parts. One track 'The Pelican' was named after a street in Paris where another old friend of mine lived, Remy Froissart a wonderful player from way back who helped me out on the 'Nine Maidens' ". 2005 reissue.
