Gay and Terry Woods: Backwoods
Bob Woffinden, NME, 21 June 1975
AFTER BEING INITIATORS in the early development of English folk/rock a period which culminated in their helping to form the Steeleye Span's first cup-winning team Gay and Terry Woods retreated from tangible legal problems and metaphysical urban ones alike to spend a term in Eire, keeping themselves to themselves and generally depriving the world at large of their talents.
