Mastered at Abbey Road from original source tapes. 200g Insert with new portraits. Strictly limited edition. Three Black Feathers Records are proud to present the definitive collectors' edition of Penguin Eggs by Nic Jones, often cited as one of the greatest folk albums ever made. Originally released in 1980 to critical acclaim, its stature has grown over time and influenced many of the highest-profile young folk artists working today. It was named in The Observer's top 100 albums of all time, and no less a figure than Bob Dylan was drawn to its acoustic delights to record a cover version of the opening track, Canadee-i-o. The album has been remastered from the original analogue masters by Sean Magee at Abbey Road, and pressed on high-quality 200 gram vinyl for the ultimate in audiophile quality. It contains a new interview with Jones about the making of the album, and an extensive critical appraisal by Colin Irwin, Mojo magazine's folk correspondent and one of the UK's leading authorities on the genre. There are also fresh portraits of Jones at his home in Devon, as well as archive photo outtakes from the Penguin Eggs sessions. The album has been pressed in a strictly limited edition run of 1,000 copies."
