Biografia:
A mais duradoura e consistente banda da cena folk inglesa surgida em 1969, com a saída do baixista Ashley "Tyger" Hutchings do grupo Fairport Convention, logo após o lançamento do prestigiado álbum "Liege & Lief", considerado o primeiro disco de folk rock: Hutchings queria continuar aquela linha de trabalho, enquanto o restante do grupo o considerava apenas uma experiência.
Unindo-se a duas duplas, Tim Hart & Maddy Prior e Terry & Gay Woods.

SEVEN HUNDRED ELVES
Capo 1
[Chorus]
G D A Em
Seven hundred elves from out the wood
G D A Em
Foul and grim they were
G D A Em
Down to the farmer's house they went
G D A Em
His meat and drink to share
[verse]
G D A Em G D A Em
There was a farmer in the west and there he chose his ground
G D A Em G D A Em
He thought to spend the winter there and brought his hawk and hound
G D A Em G D A Em
He brought with him both hound and cock alone he begged to stay
G D A Em G D A Em
And all the deer that roamed the wood had cause to rue the day
[verse]
G D A Em G D A Em
He felled the oak, he felled the birch, the beech nor poplar spared
G D A Em G D A Em
And much was grieved the sullen elves at what the stranger dared
G D A Em G D A Em
He hewed him baulks and he hewed him beams with eager toil and haste
G D A Em G D A Em
Then up and spake the woodland elves: ``Who's come our wood to waste?’'
[Chorus]
G D A Em
Seven hundred elves from out the wood
G D A Em
Foul and grim they were
G D A Em
Down to the farmer's house they went
G D A Em
His meat and drink to share
[verse]
G D A Em G D A Em
Up and spake the biggest elf and grimly rolled his eyes:
G D A Em G D A Em
"We'll march upon the farmer's house and hold on him assize
G D A Em G D A Em
He's knocking down both wood and bower, he shows us great distain
G D A Em G D A Em
We'll make him rue the day he was born and taste of shame and pain.’'
[Chorus]
G D A Em
Seven hundred elves from out the wood
G D A Em
Foul and grim they were
G D A Em
Down to the farmer's house they went
G D A Em
His meat and drink to share
[verse]
G D A Em G D A Em
All the elves from out the wood began to dance and spring
G D A Em G D A Em
And marched towards the farmer's house their lengthy tails to swing
G D A Em G D A Em
The farmer from his window looked and quickly crossed his breast
G D A Em G D A Em
"Oh woe is me,'' the farmer cried, "The elves will be my guests.’'
[verse]
G D A Em G D A Em
In every nook he made a cross and all about the room
G D A Em G D A Em
And off flew many a frightened elf back to his forest gloom
G D A Em G D A Em
Some flew to the east, some flew to the west, some flew to the north away
G D A Em G D A Em
And some flew down the deep ravine and there forever stay
[Chorus]
G D A Em
Seven hundred elves from out the wood
G D A Em
Foul and grim they were
G D A Em
Down to the farmer's house they went
G D A Em
His meat and drink to share
