Ralph McTell - Spiral Staircase 1968 [EAC - FLAC] 2007 (expanded edition)(oan)



Ralph McTell (born Ralph May in Farnborough, England, 3 December 1944)

is an English

singer/songwriter and acoustic guitar player who has been an influential

figure on the UK folk

scene since the 1960s.



Ralph McTell is probably best known for the song Streets of London which has been covered

by over two hundred artists around the world. In the 1980s he wrote and played songs for two

TV children's programmes, Alphabet Zoo which also featured Nerys Hughes, followed by

Tickle On The Tum featuring Jacqueline Reddin. Albums were also released from both

series. He also recorded the theme song to Cosgrove Hall's adaptation of The Wind in the

Willows with Keith Hopwood, and this was released as a single in 1984 after the series was

aired on ITV.



McTell's guitar style has been influenced by many of the USA's country blues guitar players

of the early 20th century, including Blind Blake, Blind Willie McTell and Robert Johnson.
