Featuring early demos, their first three albums (including 1975's classic Children Of Lir), every non-LP single and B-side from the 70s and 80s, vintage live recordings and more recent work with Donovan and others, Magic Carpet spans acid folk, psychedelia, rock and roll, rural rock and straight pop.
