Vaughan Williams song based on a 19thC poem. Extremely well known and generally performed in a plummy, parlour room style.

Fay Hield's singing of it here always gets the waterworks going for me. Martin Simpson's guitar accompaniment is precisely judged. A perfect ending to a wonderful album.

15 minute trio track on Steve Swell's Kanreki

trio is Swell, Guillermo Gregorio & Fred Lonberg-Holm

fwiw, I am resisting at all costs putting disc 1 in which starts with a 31:19 piece by Dragonfly at least until the day after 11/24 which is the night I see that quartet live up close and personal. I have a feeling that track and maybe that concert might be more than simply, "the best track I've listened to this week"

Well, I'll pick 2 tracks from this recording -- "Autumn Leaves and "Nardis" . This is an outstanding CD in every way  and reminds me of one of my very favorite piano trio recordings - Beirach's "Elegy for Bill Evans", which I  have only on a rather scratchy and worn LP.
