Time Will Pass

by Spriguns

Overview

This is Spriguns' follow-up to Revel Weird and Wild, and it is much more pop-oriented than that 1976 offering. All but one song was composed by lead singer Mandy Morton, and fiddler Tom Ling, who was a full-time member on Revel Weird and Wild, was relegated to guest musician here; so the traditional or folk elements were noticeably reduced. Robert Kirby's lush orchestration adorns three selections in a manner similar to Sandy Denny's Like an Old Fashioned Waltz. Sandy Roberton, who produced Steeleye Span's early folk albums, opted for a more pop and rock sound, as the implementation of electric keyboards and rock guitar demonstrates. This would be the last album for this band under the name Spriguns, but Morton would resurface in 1979 in another folk-leaning recording, Magic Lady, with her revamped band Mandy Morton and Spriguns. ~ Dave Sleger
