Lindisfarne (1978) Get Wise- LOST 70s GEMS
Celtic rockers Lindisfarne from Newcastle mixed supreme harmonies and acoustic guitars when Americans were dominating Folk rock. Some of their best material came at the end of 1978, the Back and Fourth major label release on Mercury with the result the successful single Run for Home. But Get Wise is a underrated release, starting with funky electric guitars and unbelievably alien sounding harmonica while the driving vocals are delivered with a slight Dylanesque drawled rebuke all to make an interesting package. The smooth country blues guitar fills work for me too!
