Beautiful, your voice is unique

Thanks for listening, Sister. It means a lot to be back and have you hear it. Yes! Here's to next year!

Curiously, I can hear Dean having a go at this. Not the orchestra, I can't do orchestras in my head, but Deano? Yes indeed!

Leafy walkways, cappucino, and a need to send flowers is exactly the feel I was going for!!

I'm so relieved that it's recognisably a tango :-D

Marz, we were chatting about the pros and cons of including drums and I said I would include at least one this time around. This is it!

Ha! Opener? This one nearly didn't get included for being 'different'. :-D Shows you how much I know!

Thanks folks. What does 'quirky' mean these days?? Do I really want to know? To me it is high praise!

Yep it does help to be able to picture a samoyed running about ;-)

Good Stuff!

Ahh like a lovely cup of tea. I was thrilled to bits when you also signed up this year, and although I failed miserably, you knocked it out of the park...again. Thanks for giving me more breezy music to laugh at the world by. Next year, let's do it again. Any physical CDs this year??

Moody, Wolfy, Sliiick. (Album opener vibes, imho)

Brilliant song - and you make it all sound so effortless. Fresh, cool, quirky (I'm told by my teenage daughters that "quirky" no longer means what I think it means, but they're wrong), just g-o-o-d m-u-s-i-c.

Absolute classic Gumbo. Light and breezy, but with a bittersweet (dark even) undertone...how do you do that!?

Super sweet! Love the mandolin and you definitely achieved the feeling you were aiming for. *googles Samoyed*

Oooh yes!! Sultry! Rhythmic! Loving all the layers, all the twists and turns.

Oof yeah, more tango! Lovely harmonies and dreamy guitar.

Mischievous and irrepressible. The prosecution rests.

This gets a strange emotional reaction from me because I can't imagine you to be anything other than mischievous and irrepressible. But...this is Americana Tango...and I love both. Weirdly though, this takes me to the leafy walkways of Rome and now I want a cappuccino and to send you flowers.

Dean Martin probably wants to record this. I can hear a version with the Hollywood treatment in my head. But this is cooler. You infuse fresh air in everything you record.

How indeed. Wonderful sound and a great mix. And yes - straight off of The Big Pink. Stellar!

I must have heard this somewhere else, Rob. Faved.

Yep. That's cool alright.

I tried not to like this - I'm not keen on the vocal but dang, it's another great song!

Damn that's tight!

Stunning! Love it!

This one reminds me of Jonathan Richman, too. Great stuff.

Beautiful! and such a lovely chorus.

Great harmonies. I laughed a lot at this.

Love these lyrics, Rob. Fred sounds like a cool codger.

1977 !! Yeah this works for me, too. Gritty and a younger character, and breaking out rather than lost! Good one.

I have to find time to sit back and blast this album out. I've heard three tracks so far when I'm rushed and I keep wanting to play the whole thing LOUD. Another great track, David.

the other joint fave. Thanks Colin. I enjoyed listening today.

No! It's the one I wanted to play first! Though I'm glad I listened in order. joint fave.

I was hoping for more like this. Strong guitar rhythms and an easy flowing vocal. Faved.

definitely a stand out track - the voice is great for the philosophical imagery.

Love the guitar frippery - good track

Smashing!! You've got really strong melodies, so easy to settle into this. Damn. Two favourites in two listens! It's a shame I got to go to work!

Great voice! And I love the " old soul music on a third hand radio " Love it!

lovely pace. I like this a lot.
