On this 1997 release, "Lydon weaves a mysterious spell with her marvelous, deep wintry voice and swirling harp and guitar textures. 'Lady of the Green' emphasizes her own compositions, notable the bleak 'Cacaphony' and 'Ashes and Clay,' a moody reflection on reincarnation that, like much of the material presented here, evokes the mood and tone of Sandy Denny's best work.... Lydon is an accomplished instrumentalist, playing keyboards, harp, and the guitar. Her spry cover of the traditional 'Cindy' recasts the southern ballad as a Celtic air.... an insidiously gorgeous work that admirably showcases Lydon's manifold musical gifts." - M. Parrish, Dirty Linen.
