Featuring one of my favorite British actors, Maxine Peak - this album is the story of the Pendle Witches - executed in 1612. It's a story anybody from Pendle, or the surrounding towns, like Bolton and Bury, grows up knowing about - absorbed as part of the local culture.
As kids we all 'knew' Pendle Hill was where the witches danced. Stories abounded that they still did. My brother and his best friend camped out there one night when they were about 13, to try and see them.
