Jenn Butterworth describes her debut album as “a feminist statement”. Her By Design certainly opens with a statement; a powerful version of Sandy Denny’s ‘All Our Days’. Sandy’s original version is different but only in degree, being rather more solemn and heavily orchestrated, but I think she would approve of this. Jenn takes it a … The post JENN BUTTERWORTH – Her By Design (One In Ten Records 110CD001) appeared first on Folking.com.
