Hurdy Gurdy Man was Donovan's 1968 album, built up around the strong singles InchHurdy Gurdy ManInch and InchJennifer JuniperInch. Like Donovan's other Micky Most produced albums this one touches upon a great varity of musical styles and instrumentations, with tasteful and original arrangements by John Cameron. Some of the more rocking tunes were arranged by John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin - e.g. The stunningly build-up title track, starting with Donovan's silent humming joined by his acoustic guitar and building up towords it's climax with electric guitars and drums. The overall sound-quality of this re-mastered version is great! Album Tracks 1. Hurdy Gurdy Man 2. Peregrine 3. The Entertaining of a Shy Girl 4. As I Recall It 5. Get Thy Bearings 6.
