Originally released in 1978, Ways of Man was the second recording of Bok, Muir, and Trickett for Folk-Legacy Records. Mostly a collection of new songs, it includes songwriting by Archie Fisher, David Mallett, and more. A rare and delightful recording of "Dancing at Whistsun", first performed by Shirley Collins on Anthems in Eden, and the album's Bok-penned titular track, serve as two moving examples of the trio's excellent musicianship.
