Now We Are Six is the sixth studio album from seminal British folk band Steeleye Span. Following on from a run of albums which solidified them as the premier UK folk outfit, Six bolstered the band's increasing rock sound further.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Now We Are Six, the album has been newly remastered and available on vinyl for the first time in 40 years.
