Album Notes & Community Reviews

An incredibly haunting, widely beloved classic of the British folk-rock revival, Trees' debut album is a wonderfully evocative acoustic triumph. 'The Garden of Jane Delawney' balances deeply pastoral, highly ethereal English folklore with wonderfully melodic, subtly progressive psychedelic rock arrangements and beautifully uplifting female vocal harmonies.
