Lady Eleanor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lady Eleanor is a song written by Alan Hull, featured on the first Lindisfarne album, Nicely out of Tune. Rleased as a single, it failed to chart. In 1972 following the success of the band's single Meet me on the Corner, from the highly successful second album Fog on the Tyne, Lady Eleanor was re-released and became their second hit single, reaching number 3 in the UK charts.
The song features the folk rock band Lindisfarne's characteristic combination of mandolin playing and close harmony singing. Its lyrics are inspired by the Edgar Allan Poe story The Fall of the House of Usher.
