Elektra EKL-213
1961
From the back cover: Throughout the Dalliance series Ed McCurdy has been given brilliant supportive accompaniments on banjo by Erik Darling who has graced most of Ed McCurdy's other Elektra albums. Also featured is the harpsichord of Robert Abramson and the recorders of Alan Arkin and LaNous Davenport.
From Billboard - December 25, 1961: A handsome package, and a buy for the money. It's a $4.98 two-disk collection of lusty songs, derived from the Elizabethan era. McCurdy, who has had successful packages in this view, sings this collection in a masculine, forthright baritone. It's well recored. Package is book-finished, and includes lyrics. It's also handsome as a display piece.
