About "Handsome Polly-O (BBC Radio 1 In Concert With John Peel)" by Steeleye Span
Steeleye Span's 'Handsome Polly-O' is a live BBC recording that crackles with folk-rock vitality. The tale of a bold woman is delivered with a wink and a stomp, the band's electric backing giving the old ballad a rebellious, modern swagger.
