Crown of Horn is an album by Martin Carthy, released in 1976. It was re-issued by Topic Records on CD in 1995.
The album is remarkable for featuring intricate Moog synthesizer arrangements by Tony Cox on three songs. Tony Cox had previously made a name for himself as a producer and session musician for several progressive rock and folk rock bands, such as Caravan, Camel, Yes and Trees.[1] In 1974 Tony Cox founded the Old Sawmill Studio in which not only Crown of Horn, but also producer Ashley Hutchings' folk dance record "Kickin' Up The Sawdust" and parts of Fairport Convention's Gottle O'Geer album were produced in 1976.
All songs are Traditional unless noted otherwise and were arranged by Martin Carthy.
