about

To quote from the spoken word introduction - it is a 'set of the songs I’d choose if I were ever to perform in a small and low lit venue nowhere near where I was born with an audience of strangers who know nothing of my songs and for sure would have no interest in trying to sing along

It began with a conversation. This was followed by some words out of which came an idea. It ends with a click from a much loved Revox B77 Reel to Reel tape deck on which most of the songs were originally recorded. It is supposed to be something other than an album of songs. It is what it became. It was perhaps an idea which should have been ignored, an idea which was no more than an excuse to reissue a set of previously heard songs. But once it had begun to take shape I just followed on until it had been completed. There are thirteen songs. They all belong to a phase in my song writing career when I did perform.

The tracks were not re-recorded for the occasion but they were all remastered.
