Woods Band

The husband-wife duo of Terry Woods and Gay Woods is well known mostly because of their brief stint within the first lineup of Steeleye Period, which lasted first album and some months prior to the couple left. While Steeleye Period — with Ashley Hutchings, Maddy Prior, Tim Hart, and fresh recruit Martin Carthy — continued to become founded as you of Britain’s best folk-rock rings and proceed through many more lineup adjustments, the Woods sank into comparative obscurity. They do, however, soon discovered a folk-rock music group of their very own, the Woods Music group, with guitarist Ed Deane and drummer Pat Nash. Terry Woods also desired uilleann piper Paddy Keenan for the group, but didn’t obtain him, though Keenan would continue to play using the Bothy Music group. The Woods Music group released one self-titled recording in 1971 that truly sounded rather much like, and held its with, Steeleye Span’s personal early function. The record was a good combination of traditional materials and originals (mainly from the pencil of Terry Woods), with regular rock devices embellished by mandola, concertina, autoharp, dulcimer, bodhran, and harpsichord. Following the Woods Music group break up, Terry and Homosexual Woods documented three albums like a duo within the last fifty percent of the 1970s. Splitting mainly because both a few and professional duo in 1980, Terry Woods became a member of the Pogues in 1985, while Homosexual Woods is at Car Da Fe within the 1980s, rejoining Steeleye Period for six years beginning in 1994.
