A minor player on the late-'60s British folk-rock scene, guitarist and singer/songwriter Marc Brierley made a couple of albums in the late '60s that were somewhat in line with the folk-pop-rock <a href="spotify:artist:6vLlQYujOujIrm7zAKzEdG">Donovan</a> was making around the same time, though they were milder and far less distinctive. Brierley made his recording debut in 1966 with a five-song acoustic EP for Transatlantic Records that was similar in nature to the early acoustic recordings of <a href="spotify:artist:6vLlQYujOujIrm7zAKzEdG">Donovan</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1FqG6mhiJbhbMg43ohCT6D">Bert Jansch</a>. His 1968 debut LP, Welcome to the Citadel, expanded his arrangements into light folk-rock and touches of orchestration, with Tony Reeves and Mike Travis (who'd just toured with <a href="spotify:artist:2ScuQMRWThcifBRIvNDFDC">John Mayall's Bluesbreakers</a>) as the rhythm section. One-time <a href="spotify:artist:6vLlQYujOujIrm7zAKzEdG">Donovan</a> manager Ashley Kozak produced 1969's more melodic Hello, which moved toward slightly fuller pop/rock arrangements, though as on its predecessor these sometimes had a Baroque flavor. Other than a couple of non-LP singles in 1969 and 1970, that would be Brierley's entire recording career, as he retired from music in 1973. All of Brierley's recordings were compiled on the two-CD set Autograph of Time: The Complete Recordings 1966-1970. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
