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 Donovan was making around the same time.
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 Donovan and Bert Jansch. 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 John Mayall's Bluesbreakers)
as the rhythm section. One-time Donovan 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
"HELLO"

Marc Brierley's second album boasted considerably more color in the arrangements
than his 1968 debut Welcome to the Citadel had. Perhaps the production input
of Ashley Kozak, who had been Donovan's manager, helped move Brierley
in the more melodic, accessible direction that characterized Donovan's brand of folk-rock.
(For that matter, sidemen Harold McNair, on flute, and Tony Carr, on percussion,
had played on some of Donovan's fine 1960s recordings.)...(AllMusic)
