Had trouble getting into the Time has Come as opposed to the self titled. I think the overbearing influence of Brigg's record label ( or whoever chose the covers and undeveloped instrumentals) kinda bring it down. The same could be said with Sing a Song for You. I think her voice sounds best either unaccompanied or with a little guitar, not a full band. But both the Time has Come and Sing a Song for You are great listens either way.

S/T and Time Has Come are both excellent.

"Beeswing" by Richard Thompson is about her.....and "the Pond & the Stream" by Fotheringay.

you can't really compare any of those other "folk chanteuses" to Annie, because.....they pretty much all wanted to BE like her -or greatly admired her, at least- as she was this untamable free spirit who lived like the songs she sang about..

Her voice is soft, weird and beautiful. I feel like she was beside me, singing just for me.

and thought the pentangle version of willie o' winsbury was incredibly expressive, the anne briggs one is out of this world.

At last delving into her work, my wife and I shared an earpiece each listening to "The Time Has Come" album for the first time last night, what a voice!

I've just heard one half of one album, so maybe my view will change with time, but this is some seriously beautiful music.

A voice that matches Sandy Denny's in my humble opinion

sadly there was so much folk creativity in the late 60s that her pure voice did not get heard enough, and her quiet retiring nature - like Nick Drake's - prevented her from becoming more widely known at the time.

She's extraordinary, isn't she? Alexis Petridis did an interesting interview with her in 2007: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2007/aug/03/folk.shopping1
