*grin* Sounds like my husband's approach to folk music in general. :)
I first listened to Steeleye Span when I was in my 'teens (The Steeleye Span Collection album) and was utterly bowled over at the time. Since then I've refined my view a bit and certainly I think there are plenty of bands who are better, but I still enjoy their music very much.
I even tend to tread the sacriledgious myself by regarding June Tabor's voice as rather better than Maddy Prior's, though of course they sounded beyond fantastic together. "Silly Sisters" rocked. :)
