Originally released in 1998 as half of the two-CD set Red Rice and reissued on its own in 2001, Red shows the alternative pop side of Eliza Carthy. There's a folkish tinge to some of the songs – the opening "Accordion Song" also shows off a facility for zydeco tunes – but the overall feel is a little more Jane Siberry than June Tabor. Even the handful of traditional English folk tunes are given adventurous treatments that stray far afield from purism; "10,000 Miles" and the blinding reel "Stingo," a showcase for Carthy's exceptional fiddle playing, have the same sort of loose, rock-oriented playfulness as the best Fairport Convention (or Cordelia's Dad) blends of pop and trad.
