''Below the Salt'' is the fourth studio album by Steeleye Span. The album takes medieval influence and combines it with the band's electric folk style. The lineup on the album includes Bob Johnson and Rick Kemp making their debut for the band.〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/below-the-salt-mw0000201231〕 Recording sessions took place in Chelsea London at Sound Techniques studios between May and June 1972.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Steeleye Span - Below the Salt )〕 Tracks were mainly chosen by Tim Hart and Maddy Prior, but it was Johnson who suggested the band added their later Christmas hit "Gaudete". They self-produced the album because they could not yet find a replacement after Sandy Roberton departed.〔http://mainlynorfolk.info/steeleye.span/records/belowthesalt.html〕 "Gaudete" became the band's first hit, reaching number 14 on the UK charts. To give the impression of the choristers approaching and then moving away, the song was given a long fade-in and -out on the album.〔http://mainlynorfolk.info/steeleye.span/records/belowthesalt.html〕 The single release, however, featured no fade. By this point, Ashley Hutchings had left the band, leaving Maddy Prior and Tim Hart as the only remaining founding members. The album reached number 43 in the UK album charts.〔http://www.ladyslipper.org/rel/v2_viewupc.php?storenr=53&upc=01635179392〕 ==Track listing== All songs on the album are traditional, adapted by Steeleye Span #"Spotted Cow" #"Rosebud in June" #"Jigs: The Bride's Favourite/Tansey's Fancy" #"Sheep-crook and Black Dog" #"Royal Forester" #"King Henry" #"Gaudete" #"John Barleycorn" #"Saucy Sailor" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Below the Salt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
