Have you seen the english movie Tam Lin? It's pretty cool and you get to recognize a very young Johanna Lumley.
The movie strongly features music as well. IIRC, most of it is decent celt-folk-rock. Except for an endless 70's romantic montage. Sorry about that.
Thank you for the selections!

Twyla --
I'm glad you liked them!
No, I had not heard of that film, so I checked it out on IMDB, and was intrigued to learn it was Roddy McDowall's one directorial venture. Apparently it was originally called "The Ballad of Tam Lin." Also I'm intrigued by the actress who played "The Faerie Queen," -- Ava Gardner! I love her work.
Unfortunately, the production company went belly up, and they edited it and repackaged it as "The Devil's Widow," which was an exploitation flick to earn some quick cash.
Decades later Martin Scorcese engaged in the project to restore the film. Even just the history of the production of "Tam Lin" along with its folkloric origin is enough to make me want to see it.
Thank you for letting me know about it! I will keep my eyes open for it on networks like TCM, where quirky, one-off, and hard-to-find pictures often get a viewing.
"Wicked" is track #2 on the album The Three Calamities.
It is also track 13 on "Graver's Paradise
Exit signs, burning red
Paying fines, move ahead
Oh, I am the wicked one
Stringing bells on your knees
Decorate, so you please
Oh, I am the wicked one
Never leave it alone
Moderate how it's shown
I am the wicked one
Blind, blind
To the fence around your mind
Tied, tied
To the gate to be refined
Paper-thin and very fine
Grind, grind
Ride, ride
Through the windshield we all fly

I have a whole playlist of late autumn stuff for whithering. It's supposed to be for a bit later than Halloween though.
