Leader/founder of the Strawbs, Dave Cousins may be the most talented Dylan-influenced songwriter to come out of England. His work fairly resounds of both rebellion and antiquity, as though he were writing protest songs of the 18th or 19th centuries. Haunting melodies abound, carried by his raspy and sincere voice. His first solo foray, Two Weeks Last Summer was released in 1972. Old School Songs arrived in 1980, followed by Bridge in 1994, Boy in the Sailor Suit in 2007 and Secret Paths in 2008.
