Piecing together information about the 50th Anniversary. I caught an Instagram post from the Recording Studio engineer stating the album is done and being mixed down with emphasis on having it ready for the tour now currently underway. I erased my Instagram account so can't post the link to this.
The following is from the Park Records Website.....however, when trying to preorder.....it states it's out of stock??
Steeleye Span's new album, EST'D 1969 will be officially released on June 17th, 2019!
The album is currently available on the Spring Tour and physical copies will be available directly from the Park Shop on the 18th April here: http://parkrecords.com/shop/
Track Listing
1. Harvest

6. Cruel Ship’s Carpenter

I really like the current lineup and the last album Dodgy Bastards.....been a fan for 40 years.
From the tour info it seems the fiddle player Jessie May Smart is on Maternity Leave and a sub is in place... (to play fiddle.....not mother...) The 50th Tour sadly is UK-only.....
Also saw Ian Anderson is on flute for one of the tunes in the album.
Sorry for the snippets.....The band / record company is not very good at marketing. I checked Amazon US...it's not there yet. Maybe wait till April 18th when the Park Records website says it will be available to order.
