Back again with more Prestige International gems - This time here's the first of two exceedingly obscure and rare sides from the long lost Scottish born folk singer Isla Cameron!

Cameron was a wonderful singer - think a prototypical Sandy Denny - and sometime actress (
Miss Mackenzie from “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie”, 1969) who was criminally underrecorded. This incidentally is an original side - NOT a compilation as the title implies and has been missing from all UK Folk discographies.
