Kate Rusby - Blooming Heather (aka Wild Mountain Thyme)

I've called her Kate Ruby in two previous posts and can't change it because there's no edit function in Bluesky. Feel like sh*t.

Not sure if there is much #UKFolk #FolkMusic on here, but this is a gem, relatively recently unearthed recordings of Nic Jones. One of the finest British folk musicians back in an era of small folk clubs.
