Firmly established as one of the rarest records of its time, and never reissued until now, Mary-Anne Paterson's sole album is a beautiful combination of traditional and original material whose echoing production perfectly captures her haunting voice. This first-ever reissue of Me is sure to appeal to all folk lovers, and deserves to elevate Mary-Anne to where she belongs - alongside Anne Briggs and Vashti Bunyan in the pantheon of Britain's leading folk singers.

"Mary-Anne Paterson was a painter, teacher, actress and folk club regular whose only album is delivered in high, pure tones with basic acoustic backing, occasionally enlivened by understated electric guitar and pounding bongos" - Mojo

"Me's contents vary from haunting treatments of traditional material (Black Girl, The Water Is Wide) to beautiful original compositions (Love Has Gone, Reverie For Roslyn). A true rarity and a prime candidate for reissue" - Record Collector
