Fire and Wine - An Armchair Guide to Steve Ashley

Fully updated to include 2015's "This Little Game" CD, the first complete musical biography of one of the UK’s most respected and talented singer-songwriters. Fire and Wine is the story of Steve Ashley, the artist Mojo magazine described as “the Inspector Morse of the folk world - a gentle romantic with a flair for mystery”; and whose debut album Stroll On holds a permanent place among the greatest folk-rock records ever made. Steve’s own recollections are joined by a small army of friends and colleagues, including Dave Pegg, Shirley Collins, Linda Thompson, Chris Leslie, Colin Irwin, Bruce Rowland, Maartin Allcock, Austin John Marshall and many others. Packed with rare photographs, Fire and Wine is an indispensable addition to the folk and traditional library.
