Curated, researched, written and produced by David Suff, 'Three Score & Ten – A Voice To The People' is a fitting eulogy to Topic Records – the oldest truly independent record label in the world. This beautiful set featured 7CDs, 144 tracks, in a ten by ten inch hardback book, with dust jacket, containing 108 profusely illustrated, full colour pages with a narrative portrait of Topic Records from it's inception in 1939 to the present day. Also included is a complete discography listing every release in those 70 years. The 144 tracks cover all aspects of TOPIC’s recording history. The extensive text gives a complete recording and social history with profiles of the essential recordings, principle artists and key personages. The many illustrations are a revelation in themselves, anchoring the whole project with photos of the artists, album sleeves, advertising leaflets, snapshots and memorabilia in full colour on every page.

The story of Topic Records is synonymous with the rebirth of folk and it's growth as a musical and social movement in Britain during the last seventy years. Three Score & Ten comprehensively chronicles this incredibly dynamic and creative period in a sumptuous package of pictures, words and music.
