ACOUSTIC STRAWBS - ACOUSTIC GOLD, 2011
Release date: Aug 2011
The time was ripe in 2011 for a retrospective of Acoustic Strawbs' recordings - hard to believe it was 10 years ago since Cousins, Lambert & Willoughby went into the studio to record some acoustic renditions of classic Strawbs numbers and released Baroque & Roll.
This CD collects some classic released acoustic material, some now deleted and hard to find, some never released at all, and a good purchase for fans attending an Acoustic Strawbs concert wanting something representative of what they're seeing/have seen.
