Rediscover the powerful fusion of folk and rock with Freedom and Rain – the critically acclaimed collaboration between folk legend June Tabor and Oysterband. Originally released in 1990, this seminal album has been a cornerstone of the British folk-rock scene, blending Tabor's haunting vocals with Oysterband's innovative approach to traditional music.

Now, for the first time in years, Freedom and Rain is available in a limited edition clear and black smoke LP and CD.

The album is a masterclass in genre-blending, giving new life to traditional folk tunes alongside contemporary covers, all imbued with raw emotional intensity. Songs like "All Tomorrow’s Parties" (a striking cover of The Velvet Underground classic) and the poignant "Dark Eyed Sailor" showcase the seamless collaboration between Tabor's evocative voice and the band’s powerful instrumentation.This reissue is more than just a nostalgic revisit—it's a timeless collection that continues to resonate today, having made a significant impact on the UK Folk Charts, reaching #1 and staying there for several weeks.

This edition is a must-have for folk enthusiasts and collectors, reviving a classic album that still moves and inspires listeners, whether on vinyl or CD.
